Abstract

MORENO MOSQUERA, Emilce. Literature, political subjectivity and education. A Triad for Reflection. La Palabra [online]. 2018, n.32, pp.155-166. ISSN 0121-8530.  https://doi.org/10.19053/01218530.n32.2018.8171.

Reading literature affects the subjective dimension of students and teachers, as well as readers and writers, and configures itself differently, taking into account the assymetry between agents. This article reviews the relation between the reading of literature and political subjectivity in the educational context, taking into account the importance given to the school and university as scenarios for the education of citizens. We propose that literature contributes decisively to the political configuration of children and young adults; this implies providing them with tools for the exercise of power and specifically oriented pedagogical action. The theorists discussed are Ruiz and Prada (2012), Nussbaum (1995, 1997, 2001, 2005, 2010) and Ricoeur (1996).

Keywords : Political subjectivity; Literature; Narrative identity; Reading education.
