A cultura dos causos populares: estratégias discursivas de leitura no Ensino Fundamental II.

Abstract

In line with the proposal of PROFLETRAS and considering the need to rethink teaching, especially Portuguese language teaching, in relation to the search of the understanding of texts and their meanings, establishing relations with its reference universe is what we will present in this work, a proposal of intervention with the intention of improving the performance of the reading abilities of the Elementary School II students. To do so, we will resort to the genre, tale of the Popular Literature. It is evident that until now little is addressed in Popular Literature in Basic Education and this is seen by many, as literature of lesser value, so we aim to demystify such idea by presenting its diversity and cultural richness. The tales in question are of the poet and accountant of tales, the Paraibano, Jessier Quirino that through humor, approaches several themes, among them, the life of the hillbilly Northeast. Moreover, based on the postulates in the French Discourse Analysis we will analyze among lines the causes, their ideology and their context of production. Humor is a prominent element in the study genre, so we will highlight some concepts of Raskin's Verbal Humor Theory as well as, we will consider the elements that are responsible for activating the triggers in the text for the construction of the risible. Therefore, we emphasize that the purpose of the research is to present the richness of the tales and how the humor in this genre is constructed for students of Elementary Education, emphasizing the reading, the comprehension and the orality, since this type of literature conduct us lightly, to the idea of reading with pleasure, leisure and delight.
