Orientador: Renata Junqueira de Souza / Resumo: Este estudo está vinculado à linha de pesquisa “Processos Formativos, Ensino e Aprendizagem” do Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação da Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia, Presidente Prudente. A proposta desta pesquisa centraliza o ensino de poesia no ambiente escolar, com ênfase na recepção leitora dos alunos e na análise de como o aprendizado acontece no processo de compreensão e de sensibilização da leitura. Considerando a literatura e o seu ensino, com a motivação pela escolha de uma educadora e poetisa que dedicou sua vida a questões que envolvem a educação e a arte, esta discussão objetiva aprofundar os estudos sobre a obra poética de Cecília Meireles (1901-1964), especialmente por meio de seu título mais renomado para a infância, Ou isto ou aquilo (2012), bem como a defesa de sua permanência e a análise de sua recepção no espaço escolar. Propomos a elaboração e a execução de possibilidades metodológicas a partir de Estratégias de Leitura que vão ao encontro de uma adequada formação do leitor, a fim de analisar a recepção da lírica ceciliana como contribuição para os estudos que centralizam a poesia e o seu ensino. Para esse percurso, alguns autores que têm um cuidado com a natureza do texto poético ou se preocupam com o trabalho desse gênero em sala de aula colaboraram em nossas investigações, como Bordini (1991), Trevizan (2002), Alves (2018) e Souza (2012). As contribuições sobre a Estética da Recepção (Jauss, 1979; 1994), sob...

The proposal of this research centralizes the teaching of poetry in the school environment, with an emphasis on the students reading reception and on the analysis of how learning happens in the comprehension and awareness process of reading. Considering literature and its teaching, with the motivation for choosing a poet and educator who dedicated her life to issues involving education and art, this discussion aims to deepen the studies on the poetic work of Cecília Meireles (1901-1964) , especially by means of its most renowned title for childhood, Ou isto ou aquilo (2012), as well as the defense of its permanence in Brazilian scenario and the analysis of its reception in the school space. We propose the elaboration and execution of methodological possibilities based on Strategies of Reading that meet an adequate training of the reader, in order to analyze the reception of Cecília's lyric as a contribution to the studies that centralize poetry and its teaching. For this journey, some authors who are careful with the nature of the poetic text or are concerned with the work of this genre in the classroom collaborated in our investigations, such as Bordini (1991), Trevizan (2002), Alves (2018) and Souza (2012). Contributions on the Aesthetics of Reception (Jauss,... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Mestre

The purpose of this project is to aid the classroom teacher in exposing children to poetry through a curriculum guide with enabling activities which will encourage children to develop an appreciation and understanding of poetry.

This research explores the availability and potential educational uses of different forms of poetry that can be read using a postcolonial approach. The focus is on contemporary France and Spain, two contexts where people with different cultural heritages coexist and need to negotiate cultural imbalances inherited from colonial and neo-colonial domination. This research highlights poetry’s overlooked suitability to engage young people in the expression of cultural difference in a progressively globalized world where cultivating cross-cultural understanding and tolerance needs to be at the top of our agendas. For this reason, the dissertation includes an analysis of poems (currently available for young people) aiming to foreground the possibilities of a postcolonial reading. I also studied similarities and divergences between the French and Spanish scenarios based on evidence gathered during a survey of the Spanish and French fields of poetry for young people and from interviews with informed agents. The survey of the field consists of the exploration of textbooks and anthologies but also the examination of poetry circulating through on-line channels. The interviews were undertaken with selected French and Spanish representatives of people currently involved in the production and dissemination of poetry for young people. I observed that the number of poems showing connections to a postcolonial legacy was scant in the French school material and even more in the Spanish books that I examined. I also confirmed that little attention was given to oral ways to deliver poetry especially showing little regard for the oral literary practices and traditions of non-European French and Spanish speaking communities. The Spanish lack of attention to these traditions is more salient. This contrasts with observations about non-school contexts. Spanish and French young people can nowadays easily engage with varied cultural traditions in poetry which circulate in poetry events and social media. Interviewees confirmed these observations but also raised issues about Spanish and French poetry education that need to be dealt with so as to improve school attention to mixed cultural heritages in poetry. The main contribution to knowledge of this thesis consists in identifying the underused and unexplored educational potential of French and Spanish poetry currently available for young people that can be fruitfully approached using postcolonial lenses. The evaluation of the information gathered in this research reveals that dominant French and Spanish approaches to poetry and limited poetry repertoires hinder the visibility of some contemporary forms of poetry and restrain the effectiveness of some poetry already present in mainstream poetry corpora. However, the comparison of scenarios shows that France offers more accessible and relevant ‘places of enunciation ’ than Spain does for poets to address young people. For instance, comparing contexts, French young people have easier access and more support than Spanish youth to engage with poets’ expressions of being culturally displaced.
