Abstract

MORAES, Raquel de Almeida. É possível uma linguagem crítica na educação?. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2006, vol.12, n.23, pp.205-216. ISSN 1981-0431.

The present paper argues the possible existence of a critical language in education. As a counterpart to education for common sense, typical of banking and standardized education practiced by the cultural and educational capitalistic industry, which uses “a simplified language for the use of the masses” (Tognolli), with “fixed invariables, ready made clichés, and a stereotypical translation of everything” (Adorno), the argument of this paper is to show that it is possible to dialogue with “non-violent intersubjectivities” - which involves recognizing the difference, the total difference (Gur-Ze'ev), aiming to awaken the consciousness of how “men are deceived in a permanent way” (Adorno). This requires the use of critical language in poetic (Bakhtin) and dialogical-loving (Freire) way for, if the critical language is authoritarian and violent, it will be used within the same logic of domination, consequently hindering emancipation.

Keywords : Critical Pedagogy; Language; Non-Violence.
