Leitura em redes de afeto e de empatia: uma discussão acerca da formação de professores para projetos de leitura no cárcere

Abstract

It is a consensus among researchers in reading and in the area of reader training that the act of reading is transformative. When we consider reading in prison spaces, the transforming meaning of the book takes on even more sensitive and humanitarian contours. In this context, the transforming role of educators deserves visibility. This work presents a research on the formation of educators who are dedicated to developing reading projects in prison. The research was developed from three moments. Initially, it proposes a theoretical reflection from July 2021. In its second stage, we present the analyzes for the interviews that were carried out with four educators who carry out reading projects in prison. Finally, we establish a reflection that integrates theory and the testimonies shared by the interviewees.
