Além dos Marimbus: estratégia escolar entre a literatura e as ciências ambientais

Abstract

This research aims to examine the perceptions of high school students at the Edgar Silva State Full-Time School in the municipality of Andaraí, Bahia, regarding the socioenvironmental relationships identified in the work "Beyond the Marimbus" by Herberto Sales, which refers to logging in a region of depleted diamond mining. The research proposal asks how critical readings perceive the aforementioned aspects of the novel "Beyond the Marimbus." The overall objective is to analyze the connections between the socio-environmental relationships present in the aforementioned work and the present day. For feedback, the specific objectives selected were to identify the main socioenvironmental themes present in the work, establish a relationship between these themes identified in the work and those of the present day, and develop textual productions on the environmental relationships identified in the work. The main concepts and theoretical frameworks concern contemporary literature on regional themes, ecoliterature, environmental sustainability, critical environmental education, and socio-environmental characteristics. These were strategically discussed within the methodology to facilitate student understanding. The methodology will adopt a qualitative approach through action research (research planning and awareness-raising, reading meetings, and discussion groups). The research findings include student characterization, mapping of the themes present in the work, and thematic panels on the chapters of the work read. The final product will be an ebook with poems on socio-environmental themes in the context of Chapada Diamantina.
