Memórias leitoras : um estudo acerca das práticas de leitura de jovens do grupo de pesquisa Relicário (CNPq/UFS)

Abstract

This paper deals with the memories that involve reading practices of the participants of the Research Group entitled Network of registered readings, literate culture: appropriation, representation and operation of the act of reading (RELICÁRIO) of the Federal University of Sergipe, Campus Professor Alberto Carvalho and registered with the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) since 2016. I sought to analyze and present his reading memories, from childhood, spanning the school period to academic life. In particular, I seek to highlight the place of the RELICÁRIO Study and Research Group in such practices. For the development of the research, according to the nature of the data, the qualitative approach was adopted. For data collection, a workshop was held, as well as a questionnaire and interview. All this instrumental was intended to obtain more consistent information in relation to the object of study. The workshop was attended by six subjects, all of them female and members of the mentioned Research Group. The data were explored from the theoretical framework of different scholars. With regard to reading and practices, we dialogued with Chartier (1998), Márcia Abreu (2006) and Petit (2009). Regarding the concept of memory, we seek support in Le Goff (2003), Artières (1998) and Nora (1981). In summary, these authors helped to understand the topic addressed, which I used as a theoretical contribution. The results of this research reveal how the ways of reading of each reader are different, the forms that appropriate the content of the work and that welcomes the experiences of reading from different social contexts throughout life. The reading memories of each one are unique and the experiences from childhood to the current period in which they find themselves are responsible for raising, many times, the literary taste and even the material support of the book.
