Dos quadrinhos para o quadro: um estudo da literatura em quadrinhos através do método recepcional.

Abstract

This research presents as a central review to analyze the reception of students from middle school - specifically seventh grade students – concerning reading adaptation of classics of children's and juvenile literature for comics. Assuming that comic literature is a playful and attractive strategy for forming, and especially consolidating, new readers, we have selected the adapted version of The Book of The Jungle (2010) - originally written by Rudyard Kipling and published in 1894 – objectifying to observe how the process of student's reception of a classic comes in when it goes out of its traditional format and model, since the comics, somehow, introduces a different structure. In this context, based on the Theory of Reception Aesthetics and on the studies and productions of authors such as Rouxel (2013), Dalvi (2013) and Bordini and Aguiar (1988), who discuss the direct work with the literary text in the classroom; as well as in studies based on comics developed by authors such as Vergueiro (2014) and Pina (2014), we aimed to elaborate a connection that articulated literature teaching and comic book Reading. This procedure was constructed and conducted through a fieldwork that, through polls, carried out the intermediate between our research and the students' vision as readers of a classic adapted to the comics.
