Tecendo leitores e leituras: a botija na sala de aula.

Abstract

The school environment has always been considered an enabling environment and interdisciplinary for work of formation of autonomous, critical and participatory citizens. In this environment, literature is relevant element for the construction of thought, as literary texts corroborate the construction of a particular way of perceiving the world and reading is understood as a personal, historical, cultural and social activity. However, educating readers is the great challenge of Brazilian education, the absence of the literary text and mediating activities of reading in the classroom are felt in various levels of education. Several factors contribute to this situation, it is necessary to rethink the role of the family as supportive of reading in childhood, the teacher education as reader and mediator of reading, but also the role of the state as responsible for promoting public policies for the promotion of reading. However, the focus of this research boils down in the subject and object that are central in this process, the reader and the text. Thus, this research aimed to reflect on the reception of the novel A Botija (2003) of Clotilde Tavares, by the readership groups of Youth and Adults Education with realization of the reading workshop "I tell for you these stories as they told me. Want to hear?: Readings popular” and point out some texts with which the work can talk, and sending other possibilities of intertextual reading from the established process. During the living with the romance genre, seen little in the school environment, we perceive like romance, combined with strategies of mediation of reading could contribute to the graduating of reader and enable a meaningful reading experience. As theoretical frameworks guiding this work, we mention Jauss (1979; 1994), Iser (1979; 1996) and Borba (2007) about the Theory of Aesthetics of Reception. On theoretical and methodological guidelines for the training of the reader and the literary reading in school, we quote Compagnon (2001), Dalvi, Rezende and Jover-Faleiros (2013), Eco (1986), Jouve (2002; 2013) and Rouxel (2013), as well as the National Curriculum Guidelines and the National Curriculum Orientations (1999a; 1999b) governing the educational system of education in the country. To reflect on the strategies of reading and teaching of literature, we turn to the studies of Colomer (2007), Todorov (2009), Cosson (2011) and Petit (2008). As for intertextual and dialogic processes, we refer to Bakhtin (2003), Kristeva (1984) and Marinheiro (1977). During our research, we found that for students read has a utilitarian function and contact with him is done with the purpose of acquiring linguistic field. On the other hand, they were willing to share the experience in reading and life. In moments of reading the novel, we observed a significant experience of reading, in particular, in the recitation of folk brochure O romance do Pavão Misterioso which provided students with an identification with the brochure, constructed from the oral reading realized. Thus, the approach to the text allowed students a reader sensitization, leading them to experience an aesthetic experience.
