Intertextualidade e expansão do repertório do leitor em formação

Abstract

This study aims to test strategies of mediation in literary literacy of elementary school students that assists in the building and expansion of their reading repertoire. It integrates the research project “Sharing and intertextuality: strategies of mediation in literary literacy” (NOGUEIRA, 2014), developed through the Professional Master Course in Languages – PROFLETRAS. Our theoretical constructs are based on the studies about literary literacy and readers formation, substantiated and developed by researches in the area, as Cosson (2006, 2009, 2014), Paulino (2001, 2004, 2009) and Colomer (2007, 2011), who are dedicated to think about the formation of the literary reader, being unanimous in attach great importance to the creation of a repertoire that goes through the several systems that dynamically form it, the literary polysystem (EVEN-ZOHAR, 1990). We adopted the action-research methodology that is essentially practical and applied and is ruled by the need to solve real problems that involves collectivity. Starting from the real situation of our students, in an 8th grade classroom of a public school, in Juiz de Fora – MG, we proposed the building and expansion of the literary literacy, starting with the reading the first volume of the Percy Jackson series that, establishing a generational link with the students, facilitated the constitution of a reader’s net. Then, we formed a horizontal net reading the second volume of the series, making viable the building of a vertical net that provided the reading of an adaptation of Odyssey, a work that belongs to humanity literary inheritance, with which the second volume of the series has explicit inter-textual links, allowing that students transited between the books and, consequently, between assorted literary systems. In addition, allowed students to investigate the relations between this various texts, using the reading diary and the class blog as tools.
