| Summary: | This work aims at discussing the distancing that exists in Brazil between the
literary canons and the school canons of the so-called literature for the youth,
based on the data that highlights the frailty of school reading process as well
as the elitization of the literature in a closed symbolic field, resulting in the
formation of non-literary readers. The "emotional" reception of young readers
lacking literary awareness and the "pedagogical" willingness of their teachers
are opposed by the possibility of adding to the school reading practice the
"strangeness" and other intellectual exercises related to the interlocution with
the canonical literature, which has been put aside in school specially due to
the radicalization of cultural studies and their repudiation towards aesthetic
canons. |
