RAMOS, João Eduardo Fernandes  y  PIASSI, Luís Paulo. Unusual and modern physics: didactic interfaces of fantastic tales. Ciência educ. [online]. 2017, vol.23, n.1, pp.163-180. ISSN 1980-850X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1516-731320170010010.

This paper approaches the relationship between Physics and Literature, represented by the fantastic tale and its didactic possibilities. We opted for short stories, because it is a fast-reading genre, and we selected fantastic literature, characterized as a meeting between the uncanny and the marvellous, that, by creating in the mind a diametric reversion could lead to possible educational sceneries. Our objective is to wonder about how the fantastic tale, could enlighten the approach to Physics themes and concepts. For that, we choose the tales from recognized fantastic writers: Poe; Jorge Luís Borges and Murilo Rubião. As an analytic framework, we performed a study based in Greimasian semiotics, and, with that, established relationships between the Fantastic and Physics, particularly, the counter-intuitive conceptions, of Physics. Such relationships invite us to consider the concept of physical reality, a desirable topic, but scarcely made room for in science classes.
