Abstract

PIETRI, Émerson de. On the constitution of Portuguese teaching in Brazil: stylistics and the production of a memory in Infância, by Graciliano Ramos. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2015, n.56, pp.243-258. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.590/0101-4360.39725.

In this paper, literary representations of Brazilian school and of the teaching of Portuguese are observed. For the analysis presented in this work, literary text is not considered as only a registration of historical facts, but also as a product of writer's formal solutions in his task to configure language as a discursive object. In this way, a chapter of Graciliano Ramos' Childhood is analyzed in order to characterize a specific moment of Portuguese teaching history in Brazil: the first Republican period and its project for public Education, in the last years of the 19th century and first decades of the 20th.

Keywords : Portuguese research and teaching; formation and memory; literature; literacy; stylistics; discourse.
