KLEIN, Sabrina Gabriela and MUENCHEN, Cristiane. Johannes Hessen's epistemology and Paulo Freire's gnosiology. Rev. Educ. Questão [online]. 2021, vol.59, n.60, e-25052. Epub Apr 19, 2022. ISSN 1981-1802. https://doi.org/10.21680/1981-1802.2021v59n60id25052.
This paper intends to present the construction of a theoretical-epistemological foundation based on the relationship between Johannes Hessen's epistemology and Paulo Freire's gnosiology, from the perspective of the Thematic Approach. The objective of the analysis is to present theoretical elements to understand the process of apprehension of themes in this perspective and, thus, contribute to the elaboration of pedagogical practices. Hessen's epistemology provides elements to understand the process of interaction between subject and object. Freire's gnosiology allows a broadening of the pedagogical view of the didactic process, necessary for the apprehension to occur. The analyses allow us to infer that the process of theme apprehension occurs through the interaction between teachers, students, scientists (subjects of knowledge) with the theme (object of knowledge) coming from reality. The interaction between subjects and objects occurs through didactic-pedagogical interdisciplinary, dialogical and problematizing processes, which should guarantee the apprehension of meaning and interpretation of the themes by the students.
