Abstract

This study addresses two main issues: first, the importance of philological criteria in a transcription. Second, how the faithfulness to the original text allows the researcher to be acquainted with the language usage from a previous language stage; the language usage is manifest in the analysed manuscript. In the second part of the text linguistic phenomena extracted from an 18th-century manuscript are briefly presented. The manuscript is entitled Processo de Genere Vita et Moribus de Francisco de Paula Meireles (1779).
