Full textA presente dissertação de mestrado, Elementos teóricos para o ensino da literatura, tem por objetivo uma compreensão do fenômeno literário que transcende a sua configuração textual, em vista de uma atualização do ensino da literatura em escolas de Nível Médio. Para alcançar este fim, a pesquisa analisa ferramentas teóricas desenvolvidas pela Estética da Recepção e pela chamada Ciência Empírica da Literatura, avaliando a oportunidade de transferir os seus modelos para o espaço escolar, como estratégia pedagógica inovadora capaz de revigorar o próprio ensino. Neste sentido, a dissertação pretende oferecer caminhos de mediação entre uma tradição ainda vigente e propostas de renovação no campo da didática com respeito ao fenômeno literário e suas formas de historiografia.
The present M.A. thesis, Theoretical elements on literature teaching, aims at understanding the literary phenomenon which transcends its textual configuration. It keeps in sight the update of literature teaching in high school (medium level). In order to achieve such goal, this research analyses theoretical tools developed by the Reception Aesthetics and the so called Empiric Science of Literature. It evaluates the opportunity of transferring those models to the space of the school, as an innovative pedagogical strategy capable of renewing the act of teaching. In such sense, this thesis intends to offer ways to deal with a still present tradition and the renewal proposals in the field of didactics concerning the literary phenomenon and its historiography.

Behari, Kasturi. "Literature education for transformation : a critical pedagogy for literature teaching." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 1997. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/19575.
Full textAs the new South African national ethos is borne, education assumes the inenviable role of reconciliator and liberator amidst the programme of the redressing of past imbalances. Stakeholders everywhere are looking to the field of education for national reconstruction and nation building through the development of young minds into productive, active and creative citizens. Indeed, the responsibility that education bears is a moral one. The broad field of this dissertation identifies Literature Education as a tool for transformation within the specific context of present post-apartheid South Africa. A paradigmatic analysis of literature teaching is provided to establish a theoretical framework for teachers to critically appreciate the underpinnings of their methodological practice, within which to locate their current literature teaching trends. Making a paradigmatic shift in literature teaching implies a change in our beliefs concerning knowledge and meaning; power and authority and learning and teaching in society. The thesis posits that Literature Education must necessarily be located within a critical paradigm of teaching, so that as a critical pedagogy, it may facilitate the self and social transformation of pupils and practitioners alike. Within the critical paradigm of literature teaching, reading is reconceptualised as an interactive process between reader and text. The reader's status is elevated to meaning-maker, without whom the act of reading would be void. Adequate literary theory is advanced on Schema Theory as a model of reading analyses of a reader's or pupil's Personal-Mental Schemata. The theory of Additive Schemata is proposed as the means to effect the transformation in pupils through Schema Refreshment or Schema Alteration. The critical teacher using Additive Schemata inputs, is in a position to maximise the potential that the learner has for transformation. Transformation, however is not guaranteed as it depends on a variety of factors such as a learner's flexibility, logical reasoning and a need to be transformed. In order to validate this proposal a research project was conducted in an English Literature class, the dynamics of which are detailed in Chapter Three in their entirety. The findings reveal that Additive Schemata have a positive influence on a learner's personal-mental Schemata leading in most cases to a transformation within pupils who engaged critically with the Additive Schemata approach. The research acknowledges that a learner's point of entry is not the same as the point of departure within the Additive Schemata approach. Learners are not being introduced to a new moral order; the Additive Schemata offers learner's a new moral choice. In so doing, literature teaching, following the Additive schemata approach, embodies the central tenets of a critical pedagogy offering pupils a process that is self-liberating and socially empowering.

Full textThe purpose of this Project Work is to assess how English textbooks present an approach to the literary text in secondary schools in Portugal. Whilst textbooks are not the only resource teachers use in their teaching practice, in the last years they have gained a significant place, being now the main tool in any classroom. Acknowledging its importance means textbooks have become legitimizing tools for the contents they promote. On the other hand, there has been a regression in textbooks due to several policies, political and educational, that have affected their role as sources of meaningful learning. In fact, being textbooks a reading of the syllabus and frequently their substitutes, it will be shown that there are flaws in the syllabus that are replicated in textbooks, affecting its content. In educational terms, the literary texts as valuable and valid learning material have been cause of debate throughout years, although the English syllabus in Portugal promotes its use. Bearing this in mind, the emphasis will be placed in the use of literary texts as a way of achieving meaningful learning and enhancing students’ knowledge of English as a foreign language and on how textbooks do not support this perspective nor recognize its importance, because they follow a communicative perspective of learning a language.

Early in the twentieth century, children’s literature in Spain developed greatly in terms of quality and distribution thanks in large part to the appearance of new publishing houses, illustrators and authors. Additionally, increased demand brought with it new translations of many foreign texts for children. Despite these early developments, children’s literature suffered a dramatic change after the establishment of Francisco Franco’s Nationalist regime; during the post-war period many types of literature were heavily censored, while children’s literature in particular devolved into what was in large part an ideological tool. Many of the texts for children during this period either directly or indirectly propagated a conception of “Spanishness” that excluded non-Catholics, particularly Iberian Muslims and those that supported the Second Spanish Republic that the Nationalists had toppled. Much like the Reconquista fought against the Iberian Muslims centuries earlier, the Spanish Civil War was often represented as a sort of crusade against non-Catholic (and therefore “non-Spanish”) Others. Many texts for children presented the elements of this narrative by means of auto-images (images of the Nationalist conception of “Spanishness”) and hetero-images (typically images of the “Otherly” Republicans and Muslims). The contrasts formed between these two sorts of images reveal how Spanish children were taught to conceive of themselves, as well as the Others of the Nationalist narrative. The texts discussed in this report include two civics texts (Así quiero ser: El niño del nuevo estado [1943] and España nuestra: El libro de las juventudes españoles [1943]), as well as two comic books (El Guerrero del Antifaz [1943-1966] and Flechas y Pelayos [1938-1949]) that were chosen for their representativeness of the sorts of texts widely available to and read by children during the post-war period.

Full textThe significance of oral literature as a container for communal wisdom in the past cannot be overemphasized. The attitudes of society, particularly the older generation towards it is testimony of its relevance in Swazi traditional society. Oral literature was highly regarded in traditional education because it was believed to mould morally sound citizens as well as encapsulating the essential values of the community. This study is an investigation of the problems and challenges facing the teaching and learning of oral literature in Swaziland's contemporary secondary schools. The nature of the problems is distilled from the interviews conducted on both learners and teachers concerning their attitudes and views to the teaching and learning of this subject.
