Os estudos acadêmicos de literatura: uma experiência constitutiva

Abstract

This article focuses on the theme of the literature academic studies. The reading of authors such as Plato, Vygotsky, Compagnon, Barthes, Bruner, Heidegger, Secchieri among others bases it. The article advocates the idea that it is necessary to review the academic practices, which consider literary texts on an exogenous point of view. However, it would be preferable that the studies of literature were turned to the issues of their nature. They should occur based on the specificity of knowledge conveyed and on the possibilities of sense formation offered by the hermeneutic work.
