Acontecimento: a aula como obra de arte

Abstract

This work is a reflection on literature, art, class and life. These elements, in particular, by their scope, the last three, merge in the scope of this study to found the concept that we call by the name Event: the classroom as a work of art. This concept has been developing for centuries, gaining form, visibility and enunciation, becoming the matrix of another Stratum of Knowledge, another way of seeing, saying and living the lesson. To a certain extent this work thinks in particular through literature, but also thinks through other artistic manifestations, about the changes that have occurred over time in the understanding of what is class, culminating in the manifestation of this concept, which advances through the contributions of diverse contemporary thinkers, but also builds on the pillars of the thoughts of old masters like Nietzsche, Foucault, Deleuze and Roland Barthes, among others. It is not an attempt to catalog the various ways of saying what is a lesson, so little is it a recipe of how to do a class or the class as a work of art. This work is, above all, an attempt to be what it says, to be an event, a lesson, a work of art and life. Therefore, the reader is expected to savor, think, challenge, affect, and be affected, in order to ultimately follow the advice of Master Nietzsche, in the words of Zarathustra, and leave us to find himself.
