Abstract

ALMEIDA, Paula Josiane  and  CORREA, Rosa Lydia Teixeira. Pachoal Lemme and Jorge Amado in defense of education and soviet literature in the Brazilian press (1945-1962). Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2023, vol.22, e179.  Epub Aug 07, 2023. ISSN 1982-7806.  https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v22-2023-179.

The purpose of this article is to present the diffusion, by Jorge Amado and Paschoal Lemme, of the Soviet educational and literary thought in Brazil between 1945 and 1962. These authors, who had recognized works and dealt with social themes in Brazil, used the press as a tool to propagate Soviet thought and the main Russian theorists who formulated new pedagogical and literary aesthetic proposals at that time. In articles and interviews at the time, Jorge Amado and Paschoal Lemme exalted the successes achieved and the new horizons open to education and literature, which were aligned with the debate overcoming capitalism and the new models of organization in the literary and educational fields. In this perspective, the present work seeks to rescue journalistic publications in which these authors defended and propagated the Soviet conquests, using them as a reference to reflect on the education and culture of Brazil at the time.

Keywords : Soviet Education; Jorge Amado and Soviet Literature; Paschoal Lemme and Soviet Education.
