Aspectos poéticos da negritude na educação básica: interface entre o rap nacional e o poema afro-brasileiro

Abstract

This research, which is within the scope of literature teaching, is linked to the project “Pedagogical Technologies for Literature Teaching: practical perspectives”, developed by professor Érika Kelmer Mathias, in the realm of the Professional Master’s Degree in Letters of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (PROFLETRAS / UFJF). Being an intervention work, its object is the intervention action agenda, with regard to the promotion of poetic aspects of blackness. Besides the scarcity of the presence of Afro-Brazilian literary texts and activities that develop the work with aesthetics in textbooks, we noticed a racist behavior and denial of identity on the part of many young people facing the afrodescendant elements in the classroom space. Thereby, this research aimed to promote and articulate literary literacy with the corpus of the black literary universe establishing a dialogue between the national rap genres and Afro-Brazilian poetry with the following specific aspects: beat, sample and scratch (in rap), and verse, rhyme and metric (in poetry). Furthermore, through the thematic bias, we also sought to provide and link this literary literacy to the specific situation of the students involved in dealing with the afrodescendant universe in the classroom. The research was conceived in a seventh grade elementary school from an interior city of Minas Gerais. It was methodologically based on aspects of action-research and has as theoretical foundations the concepts of literary literacy (PAULINO and COSSON); literary polysystem (EVEN-ZOHAR); repertoire (ISER); shared reading (COLOMER); mediation (PETIT); blackness (FANNON); subalternity (SPIVAK); rap (TEPERMAN and SALLES) and Afro-Brazilian poetry (DUARTE).
