Abstract

Problematizing the discourse present in children’s books from a feminist perspective, based on Linda
Nicholson, Joan Scott, Guacira Lopes Louro and Paulo Freire, it is intended to debate how women are represented in the literature, as well as the other social areas that contemplate them or not, such as: family, work, politics. Believing that identities come from socially constructed relationships and discursively, we seek to contribute to deconstruct concepts that still being as natural. The aim is to encourage teachers, starting from the books analyzed, to encourage students to see the characters and the plot brought by the story from another perspective, aiming at the possibility of emancipation of all those involved in the educational process. The results obtained so far will be presented by categories: Female empowerment, Political Participation, Identity, Emancipated woman and fairy tales. The goal is to assist teachers and those who propose to do a reading with the purpose of magnifying the child’s gaze for differences.
