El tiempo entre costuras sob uma perspectiva histórica, ficcional e intercultural em aula de espanhol como língua estrangeira.

Abstract

Brazil is one of the countries in which the teaching of Spanish has experienced a growth significant. Given this reality, it is necessary to carry out studies on teaching and learning practices of Spanish as a foreign language (ELE). Due to its aesthetic and polysemic value, our research sees the reading of literary works as an important procedure to be adopted in teaching ELE, as it can provide an integral training, allowing a fruitful space for interdisciplinarity. In view of the assertions presented, our guiding question is: “how can the Spanish language and literary text be taught, embracing existing cultures in the classroom environment, establishing a dialogical relationship with other areas of knowledge in order to motivate teaching? / language learning, in addition to reading the work itself as an aesthetic element? ” From the problematic that incites this investigation, our research has as general objective to analyze the importance of the literary text in classes of Spanish as a Foreign Language in an intercultural and interdisciplinary perspective, from the novel El tiempo entre costuras (2009) of the writer Maria Dueñas . This research has its relevance highlighted when we take into account its contribution to the training of Spanish-speaking professionals in the state of Paraíba. This is because we seek to promote the teaching of language and literature in order to highlight its essence as an instrument that values ​​intercultural dialogue and interdisciplinarity. Our main theoretical guidelines are the studies by Alves and Mendonça (2003), Luiz Costa Lima (2006) and Alfredo Bosi (2013) with regard to the conceptual differences between the terms History, Fiction, Literature and the relations of approach and distance between historiographical and fictional writings. We also have in Serrani (2005), Laraia (2006), García Martinez (2007), Paraquett (2010), Almeida Filho (2011) reflections on the definitions of Culture, Multiculturalism and Interculturality and the use of the intercultural perspective in ELE classes, as an opportunity for teachers and students to teach and learn the language while achieving growth, professional, reflective and critical. Acquaroni (2007), Pinheiro Mariz (2007), Irala (2010) and Mendes (2011) support this research, from their studies in an intercultural perspective and in relation to Literature thought as cultural mediation. In view of the interpretative character that our research assumes and based on the studies by Fonseca (2002), Portela (2004) and Gil (2007), we decided to adopt a qualitative approach methodology, regarding the objectives, we classify the research as explanatory and in relation to to the procedures, we classify it as an action research. It was found that the reading of El tiempo between seams could provoke and encourage these professionals to know a little more of Spanish History and Culture, ratifying the space for interdisciplinarity, as a process of building a new integrated curriculum, offering the opportunity to deepen cultural and historical knowledge, in addition to teaching.
