Personagens em histórias inventadas por alunos de escola pública e escola particular: a intertextualidade nas nomeações

Abstract

This paper discusses, from the notion of "Bakhtinian dialogism" understood as a constitutive element of any speech, character names by pupils of the first cycle of elementary school, when they write their stories invented (Calil, 2004, Calil and LIMA, 2007). Our corpus consists of 41 manuscripts school students in grades 2, collected in 1996 in a public school and 24 manuscripts from the 3rd grade students, collected between 1997 and 1998 in a private school, both the city of Maceió. From these two sets of manuscripts (Calil, 2008) describe what are the names of characters who appear, the intertextual relations (KOCH, 2009) that these names are to the cultural environment, mainly determined by television and the texts read in room classroom, where students are immersed in these belonging to different socioeconomic levels. To compare them, we established the following categories: fictional names (related to the cultural universe, such as media, written materials known, among others - eg Little Red Riding Hood), nonfiction (names linked to the immediate context and daily lives of children - example: Amanda);-fictional non-fiction (and everyday cultural universe - eg Princess Rachel). The results indicate that both the public school students as the private school have adopted much the same form of appointment, identify the presence of a significant percentage of characters related to non-fictional universe, ie, the immediate context and everyday, with names from friends and family, usually made individually, like Elizabeth, John .. We conclude that, even in texts written by students immersed in different cultural realities, this form of appointment approaching their stories, as well as helps us to characterize the creative process of students in this age group.
