Abstract

ABDALA JUNIOR, Roberto. O cinema na conquista da América: um filme e seus diálogos com a história. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2008, vol.13, n.37, pp.123-137. ISSN 1413-2478.

The article seeks to deal with a classical question, particularly present in the relation between teachers and film-makers: films and processes of learning. Based on works by James Wertsch, a psychologist who has been searching for "approaches" between the theses of Vygotsky and Bakhtin, these reflections aim to demonstrate that the arguments of these and other authors who study the cinema - also from the Bakhtinian perspective - can be articulated in the sense of suggesting strategies for using films in the process of constructing historical knowledge. Finally, we propose a practical exercise based on the film 1492 - The conquest of paradise, by Ridley Scott.

Keywords : History; Cinema; Construction of Historical Knowledge.
