GARCIA, Silas Sampaio  and  AQUINO, Julio Groppa. An Obnoxious Word: on the meeting between literature, writing and education. Educ. Real. [online]. 2020, vol.45, n.1, e93433.  Epub Jan 30, 2020. ISSN 2175-6236.  https://doi.org/10.1590/2175-623693433.

Taking literary practices within the scope of cultural pedagogies, this essay analyzes the (counter)effects of the writers’ public voice - mainly of journalistic circulation - as a vector for diffuse control of non-literary modes of writing, including the educational ones. By a theoretical dialogue with Michel Foucault, it is argued that literature, when associated with a pedagogical leitmotiv, becomes a veridictive-subjectivating apparatus sustained by discursiveness around writers, causing a political problem regarding the freedom of writing. Finally, it advocates for an unimpeded addressing to the scriptural gesture, capable of unfolding it into a myriad of possible achievements.

Keywords : Literature; Writing; Writers; Cultural Pedagogy; Michel Foucault.
