Além da diversidade: literatura infantojuvenil como horizonte de humanização

Abstract

As of Flor and Rosa: a love story between equals (2011), The Love does not choose sex (2010), The boy who played at being (2000) and Olívia has two daddies (2010), tried to be investigate the constructed didacticism by literary narratives, bringing to the discourse the process of humanization promoted through literature explained by Antonio Candido (2004), dealing mainly with the speeches of the characters, which implies, for example, discussing sexual orientation and gender identity , to recognize the interface between literature and society. In this way, it is possible to observe a series of stereotypes and didactic counterpoints of the corpus analyzed from the speeches of the characters, since there is a denunciation of violence against the LGBT population. This is a bibliographical review that takes into account gender studies and literary criticism, applying the interpretive method of Fabio Akcelrud Durão (2020). The interpretation starts from the speeches of the characters, taking into account their association with typical stereotypes of LGBT social discrimination, in an attempt to discuss the didacticism of literary works. Based on these elements, the dissertation shows how literary narratives, implicitly and explicitly, seek to present the LGBT theme in a positive way.
