Description
Summary:http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1984-8412.2017v14n2p2152 Art is one of the main wonders of human production. It involves, amuses, seduces, surprises and frightens us: It makes us think. In the scholar context, it helps students to deepen their understanding and criticism of humanity and in the process of construction of individual and cultural identity. This study, a classroom research, describes the observation of lexical-grammatical patterns of a learners’ corpus built collaboratively based on concept maps. The investigation was conducted in a Federal Institute with Technical High School students and the analysis with the assistance of Iramuteq, emphasizing: the collaborative writing production, the thematic built from the concordance lines of the node Art and the assumptions used in the textual construction. The lexical choices demonstrate linguistic, aesthetic and symbolic values that emphasize the emotional, affective and social side of Art as a key area for humanity.
