Education, corporeity and literature: Possible relationships
Keywords:
Literature, Corporeality, Ambience, Slam poetry.Abstract
Educational methodologies centered on developing interpretative capacity, based on a logic of knowledge representation that privileges rationality, relegating sensitivity and perception to a category of dubious, imprecise knowledge, valuing the so-called “education of the head”, relegate the place of the body as a possibility and condition for apprehending reality. Concepts based on dichotomies that reduce knowledge to its reflective and conceptual aspect, distance it from the movements, experiences and experiences that come from the relationship of being in/of/with (the) world. It is from these considerations that an understanding of the body as the basis of our integration with the world needs to be configured in educational objectives and practices, since without the body there is no world and without the world there is no body. The aim here is to discuss the importance of ambience and its intercorporeal relations in the teaching of literature, especially slam poetry.
