Aulas de literatura no ensino médio: prazer e fruição (também) na leitura de best-sellers

Abstract

Recent studies have addressed the importance of respecting and encouraging the literary choices that high school students, and all basic education, doin default of the school. However, as we enter the school environment in literature classes, we realize that many teachers show a certain resistance in adopting less traditional attitudes to their practices, considering as literature, only works of the canonical vein. Thus, the hypothesis we hold is that the lack of openness of some teachers and some schools in relation to the works of authors who are not "consecrated" prevents the student from becoming an autonomous reader (since he does not Acquires a conception of literary taste), curtailing the right of the same to maintain a full contact with the most diverse literary manifestations. Faced with this problem, we ask ourselves: Why not stimulate the reading of the students through their literary choices?And why not make it a way to get to canon literature as well? Based on this (and other research questions), we aim, at the outset, to investigate the views of the teacher and the MS students about the selection and reading practices of the novel genre.
