Contextos vivenciados pelos surdos simbolizados no conto patinho surdo Amargosa 2017

Abstract

The present work aims to analyze the contexts lived by deaf people symbolized in Patinho Surdo [the deaf duckling] tale, authored by Karnopp e Rosa (2005). For the development of this investigation, it was adopted the qualitative research approach with the bibliographic methodology option, aiming to deep the studied phenomenon. For such, the work was based on Santos (2011), Eagleton (2006) and Peres’ (2007) writings about children’s literature in the studies of Strobel (2009), Morgado (2011), Porto e Peixoto (2011) and others about Deaf Literature. The analysis of the tale was built from four categories: the discovery of deafness, linguistics difference, professional interpreter and deaf difference and alterity. The present study enables us to realize that deaf communities have been pictured in Contemporaneous Literature, denominated Deaf Literature, the context by deaf people, their struggles, achievements, rights and, that Patinho Surdo presents discursive elements that deserve to be debated, in other words, they should not be left aside, on the contrary, they must be included in not only deaf people but also in listening people’s reading, even in educational spaces where there is more access to this reading
