A expressividade poética da linguagem em Cora Coralina

Abstract

The present research is focused on the stylistic approach of Cora Coralina´s poems, and their use in classroom. At first, eleven poems of the author are selected and the expressiveness of each of them is commented. Then, a adapted didactic sequence used in classroom is presented and five texts produced by students are analyzed. The study is justified by the lack of essays and projects that disclose Cora Coralina´s work. Therefore, the general goal of the present Thesis is to deepen the research towards the author´s work and disclose it; the specific goals are: to emphasize the stylistic aspects present in the author´s writings, to identify the linguistic-expressive factors that expose an original language, to present a literary language that is accessible to common people and to use the author´s work in classroom. This research has used the qualitative research methodology (Moreira and Caleffe, 2008) with the aim to discuss the relevant elements of the author´s text, and the methodology of research-action (Thiollent, 2009) since the students were active individuals while Cora Coralina´s texts were presented in classroom. Many authors were important for the theoretical foundation of this study, such as Mattoso Câmara Jr. (1978 and 2004), Nilce Sant`Anna Martins (2012), Evanildo Bechara (2019), Marcel Cressot (1947) and Goiandira Ortiz de Camargo (2006). In the light of the foregoing, it is relevant to emphasize that the research seeks to disseminate the work of Cora Coralina, which in addition to the stylistic aspects approached, deals with very importante themes of the present, like respectful childhood, female independence and the appreciation of her place, in her memories
