A presente pesquisa tem como objeto duas diferentes versões de narrativa juvenil de Lygia Bojunga; a primeira delas é 7 Cartas e 2 Sonhos, publicada em 1982, contando com reproduções de nove pinturas de Tomie Ohtake e a segunda é O Meu Amigo Pintor, trazido ao público, sem as referidas ilustrações, em 1987, pela Editora José Olympio - republicada em 2006 pela editora Casa Lygia Bojunga, contendo o posfácio Para Você que Me Lê, com informações sobre o processo criativo dessas duas obras. Investiga-se, dessa forma, o contato da escritora com as nove imagens pictóricas ohtakeanas, que inspiraram a criação de um texto literário para o projeto Arte para Crianças e Jovens da Berlendis & Vertecchia Editores, reunindo arte literária e arte pictórica num mesmo suporte o livro com ilustração. Para tanto, se pretende estudar o diálogo entre aspectos verbais e visuais presentes na primeira obra, que, por sua vez, culminaram no refazer literário de Lygia Bojunga, que, ao reescrever a narrativa, transformou-a em outra, sem a presença do suporte artístico de Tomie Ohtake. As histórias de 7 Cartas e 2 Sonhos e O Meu Amigo Pintor são contadas por um narrador que está na passagem da infância para a adolescência, período em que se depara com o suicídio de seu melhor amigo um artista, pintor. Nesse prisma, objetiva-se investigar ainda como se deu o processo de reescrita da primeira para a segunda versão do texto literário bojunguiano, analisando os resultados dessa transformação. Partiremos do pressuposto de que os presentes estudos são importantes para instaurar uma reflexão crítica sobre o papel da literatura destinada às crianças e jovens, na vertente de sua criação e recriação artística, com e sem a dimensão suplementar da arte pictórica. / This research has as study object two different versions of young narrative by Lygia Bojunga: the first one is 7 Cartas e 2 Sonhos, published in 1982, with nine reproductions of paintings by Tomie Ohtake, and the second one is O Meu Amigo Pintor, published, without the illustrations, in 1987, by the publisher José Olympio republished in 2006 by Casa Lygia Bojunga, with the afterstate Para Você que Me Lê (For You Who Read Me), with information about the creative process of these two works.

This thesis deals with three novels written by a contemporary French writer of literature for children and young adults, Timothée de Fombelle: Toby Alone, Vango and The Book of Perle. The aim of this thesis is to define options of incorporation of these novels into literature lessons in higher grade classes of the elementary school. The thesis consists of a theoretical analysis of chosen aspects of the novels, description of subjective experience with reading the books, three excerpts from the novels, their didactic potential and model preparations for the lessons. The model lesson preparation includes the three-phase E-U-R learning model as well as the methods developing the ability of understanding and critical thinking (RWCT - Reading and Writing for Critical Thinking). Each model preparation is followed by a didactical commentary. Preparation of lesson with the excerpt from Tobiáš Lolness was implemented practically and consequently reflected by the teacher.

As ascertained, the novels by Fombell show various mutual signs as well as the fact that they have a significant potential to engage attention of a young reader, since they provide topics interesting for this age group in accordance with the stage of their psychological development....

L'humor permet entendre i organitzar el món. És un aspecte en l'educació de la identitat cultural que comença tan aviat com la canalla pot seguir una narració oral, i que s'intensifica a mesura que la lectura esdevé un hàbit. L'humor escrit ofereix recursos expressius i camps semàntics determinats per la llengua, i continguts i referents culturals determinats pels valors socials; el seu codi inclou convencions amb el lector sobre la presentació i l'argument. Com a estratègia d'adaptació, l'humor es va modificant segons les circumstàncies socials al llarg del temps. El present treball es centra en la literatura per a infants i joves escrita en català com a idioma original i editada entre el 1904 i el 2004. / Humour helps us to understand and organise the world. It is an aspect in the formation of cultural identities which develops as soon as children can follow an oral narrative, and is further intensified as reading becomes a habit. Written humour displays expressive resources and semantic fields determined by the language, and contents and referents determined by social values; its code includes conventions with the reader regarding form and plot. Being a social strategy, humour evolves through time depending on the circumstances. This research focuses on literature for children and adolescents originally written in the Catalan language and published between 1904 and 2004.

This dissertation considers the contextualising in African settings of three themes addressed in youth literature of the Baptist International Publications Services (IPS). It utilises a critical methodology developed from Kraft's (1979) ten principles of communication to analyse the efforts to contextualise the themes of salvation, the Christian family and witchcraft. Chapter one discusses contextualisation and presents a critical methodology based on Kraft's ( 1979) principles of communication. Chapter two is an historical background study of the International Publications Services. Chapters three, four and five use the critical methodology developed in chapter one to examine the themes of salvation, the Christian family and witchcraft respectively, as found in IPS youth literature. Chapter six is an analysis and conclusion of the study with suggestions for further research. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / M.Th.

[pt] Saber lidar com as imagens, compreendê-las e construir significado para elas, torna-se tarefa premente para os sujeitos na contemporaneidade, participantes de uma sociedade imersa na multimodalidade. Contudo, ao contrário da cultura escrita, não existem mecanismos de ensino próprios para a formação visual do indivíduo na instituição escolar. Compreendendo que o livro de literatura para crianças e jovens, em sua grande maioria, encontra na relação verbo-visual o espaço propício à fruição da poesia e da ficção, a presente pesquisa assume por objetivo estabelecer a relação entre o Design, presente nos livros de literatura voltados para crianças e jovens chancelados pelas políticas públicas, e o processo de formação visual do leitor. Para isso, propõe-se, por meio de análise gráfica dos livros literários selecionados pelo Programa Nacional Biblioteca da Escola - PNBE, a organização de um panorama a respeito da progressão de complexidade gráfica dessas obras, relacionando os aspectos gráficos por elas apresentados com o desenvolvimento escolar do leitor na Educação Infantil, nos anos iniciais e finais do Ensino Fundamental e no Ensino Médio. Nesse processo, foi possível perceber que os acervos organizados, apesar de possuírem objetos-livro cujos projetos são condizentes com o conceito de Design na Leitura, não apresentam em seu conjunto uma progressão, ao contrário, conforme os leitores avançam no processo escolar e na compreensão do conteúdo textual, o conteúdo gráfico e imagético tende a diminuir em quantidade e a simplificar-se. Acreditando que ao possibilitar que crianças e jovens se formem sujeitos leitores potentes na significação da verbo-visualidade, alcançando a condição de sujeitos críticos e agentes de mudanças dos sistemas ideológicos sociais que os circundam, propõem-se intervenções para a modificação desse cenário a partir de propostas direcionadas aos mediadores de leitura, dentre eles os designers. / [en] Knowing how to handle, understand and build meanings from images is a paramount task for readers in contemporary society, as it is immersed in multimodality. However, in opposition to written culture, there are no specific teaching mechanisms for reader s visual education at schools. Acknowledging that most literature books for children and young people find a conducive environment for poetry and fiction fruition in the verbal-visual relationship, this research aims to stablish a connection between Design, present in literature books for children and young people sealed by public policies, and the process of reader s visual education. For that, we conducted a graphic analysis of literary books selected by Programa Nacional Biblioteca da Escola (PNBE) and organized an overview of their graphic complexity progression, relating the graphic aspects they present to reader s school development in pre-, elementary, middle and high school. In this process, we were able to perceive that, although the collections comprised books whose projects were consisted with the concept of Design in Reading, they did not present a progression of visual complexity. On the contrary, as young readers advanced on their schooling and understanding of textual content, graphic and image content tended to reduce in number and to become simpler. Thus, this research proposes interventions for changing this scenario based on actions targeted at reading mediators, among them, designers themselves. This would enable children and young people to become empowered readers in verbal-visual meaning-making and reach the condition of critical individuals and transformation agents in the ideological social systems that surround them.

Em nosso trabalho, analisamos em algumas obras de Bartolomeu Campos de Queirós que compõem o chamado “ciclo autobiográfico”, em especial as que trazem a imagem da ausência/presença do pai, a relação entre vida e escrita, bem como as figurações do pai e de seus intermediários e substitutos. Investigamos, sobretudo, o caráter da repetição no modo como se articulam as relações familiares, com destaque para as que ocorrem entre pai e filho e que aparecem nesses textos. Essa problemática interessou-nos como objeto de pesquisa, a priori, porque as obras de Bartolomeu Campos de Queirós são um expoente no campo da literatura infantil, na medida em que mostram que nem sempre a infância é “colorida”, feliz e perfeita como nos procuram fazer crer diversas produções supostamente feitas “para crianças”. Além disso, os textos selecionados de caráter autobiográfico, que trazem a questão do sofrimento da criança devido à ausência do pai, configuram-se como riquíssimo corpus para estudos referentes à relação entre vida/obra e as investigações no diálogo entre Literatura e Psicanálise. Isso nos permitirá entender o porquê de a dor da falta do pai ser repetitiva e insistente nesses livros. Dessa forma, problematizamos, por meio das obras selecionadas para este estudo, o conceito de literatura infantil e juvenil e a noção de leitura literária. Também analisamos nos “depoimentos” dados pelo autor a relação entre vida e escrita e investigamos, com base em estudos psicanalíticos, a escrita literária enquanto possibilidade tanto de elaboração inconsciente da memória marcada pela ausência do pai – remédio –, quanto de perpetuação desse mesmo conflito – veneno. Ademais, analisamos como se processam as relações entre o filho e o pai considerando a ausência da mãe, já que, nas obras em que há a presença desse personagem, ela parece mediar de certa forma tais relacionamentos. / In our work, we analyze some works of Bartolomeu Campos de Queirós that compose the “autobiographical cycle”, especially those ones that bring the image of father’s absence/presence, the relationship between life and writing, as well as the father’s figurations and his intermediates and substitutes. We especially investigated the aspect of repetition about how the family relations are articulated, highlighting those ones that happen between father and son and that appear in these texts. This problematic interested us as a research object, a priori, because the works of Bartholomeu Campos de Queirós are an exponent of literature for children field, as far as they show that the childhood is not always “colorful”, happy and perfect as several productions supposedly made “for children” seek to have us believe. In addition, the selected texts that have an autobiographical characteristic and put the issue of child suffering because of the father’s absence are configured as a very rich corpus for studies related to the relation between life/work and investigations in the dialogue between Literature and Psychoanalysis. These aspects will permit us to understand why the pain of missing father be repetitive and insistent in these books. Thus, we problematize, by the selected works for this study, the concept of literature for children and young people and the notion of literary reading. We also analyzed in the “statements” given by the author the relationship between life and writing and we investigated, based on psychoanalytic studies, the literary writing as a possibility of both unconscious development of memory marked by the father’s absence – remedy – as of a perpetuation of this same conflict – poison. Furthermore, we analyzed how the relationship between son and father are processed considering the mother’s absence, since the works that have this person’s presence, she seems to mediate such relationships in a certain way. / Dissertação (Mestrado)
