Letramento literário em interface com a multimodalidade: rios que deságuam em outros dis(cursos)

Abstract

The practice of literary reading in segments of Basic Education, especially in the Final years of Elementary School, needs to be motivated in order to provide a work that meets the demands for the formation of the critical reader, especially in relation to the universe of multimodality. With an apparent vision of novelty, multimodality is not the result of the emergence of DICTs (Digital Information and Communication Technologies) in the beginning of 1920s in Brazil, but it is potentiated from them for the creation of new multimodal genres. Thus, the dynamism and interactivity of digital tools dialogue with the discursive genres that, from the Bakthinian perspective, are integrated and interconnected in the several fields of social activity, articulating various contents, enabling the consolidation of multi-semiotic teachings. This promotes the practice of literary literacy, which can reframe the meaning attributed to reading, in school practices, through creative and challenging activities, articulated with the multimodal genres. In this way, this project aims, through the reading of the work “O menino e o rio” ("The boy and the river"), to propitiate the activism of the reader, which overcomes the subtleties of the literary text and produces meanings to be reflected in the social environment. The infographic genre, listed in this project, consolidates the proposal of producing a multimodal text, based on the literary narrative, articulating information, image and literature to be shared by the community of Instagram readers.
