NARVAJA DE ARNOUX, Elvira Beatriz y BLANCO, María Imelda. Quotation, Commentary and Reformulation in Crossing through a Fragment from the New Testament. Tóp. Sem [online]. 2007, n.17, pp.63-87. ISSN 2594-0619.
In this article we take a journey through a fragment of the New Testament that passes through a quotation, a commentary and a reformulation. It starts from the fact that these discursive operations not only convoke the text first but also assign it new meanings as much by chance of the context and verbal surroundings as by the explicit will to modernize and explain what was uttered before. The analysis starts from a biblical quotation present in a letter that the military bishop sent to the Argentine minister of health. Then this fragment is linked with readings present in media related texts, official declarations, and the answer from a female judge regarding a lawsuit and the source texts. Later, other readings of the same fragment from the Gospels are shown. The article comes to the conclusion that the tension between fidelity to the text and modernization is not resolved easily, even though the interpretive operations are institutionally legitimized.
