Meu material escolar: um olhar sobre a poética de Ricardo Azevedo.

Abstract

In this paper we analyze the work Meu Material Escolar (2000), by the renowned writer, illustrator and researcher Ricardo Azevedo, recognized on the editorial panorama of children’s and youth literature, in order to verify the way the poems are constructed, as well as highlight the emancipatory character of the literature written by Azevedo. We also bring a proposal of methodological approach as a possibility of work with the children’s poetry by Azevedo. Therefore, we use as theoretical reference the studies of Bordini (1991), Lajolo and Zilberman (1987) about the historical aspects and characteristic elements of the poetry for the children and youth audiences; Pondé (1986), Pinheiro (2018) and Bordini (1991) about the experiences and approaches of the poem in the school context of and Bordini and Aguiar (1988) about the need for a methodology for teaching literature. We conclude that the poems present a unautomated way of seeing the objects, allowing exciting and meaningful reading experiences for both children and adults.
