A estética concreta de Gaston Bachelard aplicada à literatura infantil: especificidades de uma vivência

Abstract

The real aesthetics of Gaston Bachelard is based on belief in a primitive human feeling formed from primordial organic interests, called "hormones of the imagination" - water, air, earth and fire, which characterize the material and dynamic imagination ontogenic capacity, responsible for the simultaneous pregnancy of man and the world. This paper aims to describe the pleasant interface approach the child in the process of hospitalization in a Pediatric Oncology with the Children's Literature, emphasizing the human capacity to transform itself from the "wonder" arising out of this dynamic view of the imaginary. Were prepared three chapters on the subject. The first two are theoretical, presenting the concept of imagination and material dynamics and their interrelationship with authors like. The third, empirical, includes comments on the use of four books for hospitalized children with specific emphasis to the presence of material elements - water, air, earth and fire - contained therein. Despite sharing to ensure that the images should not be studied in fragments, were presented the comments of every book into separate parts for better visualization of the chosen book and you can understand how each work influences the child's imagination. It remained thus the reliability of care in the transcription experienced by four specific children, keeping the representations relating to certain books. The representations related to the interactions established between the world and the world transformed by the stories, the fiction experienced as a possible easing of tensions hospital; literature enabling the experience of lightness by the expression of repressed feelings and chained to the repetition of history, as ensuring the continuity of life, despite repeated frustrations. Using the poetic-analysis Bachelard (Bachelard, 1988) and an operant view of psychoanalysis (Kon, 1996), enhances the possibility of creating unique realities in fiction, which are marked by the cultural heritage of each one. The results confirm the existence of a poetic vision of the child, captured by the possibility of making them believe this time of the eruption, the "wonder" provided for reading.
