Description
Summary:This paper aims to examine two tales for children of nineteenth century in order to demonstrate how the concepts of work and education, imposed by the dominant knowledge are portrayed in these tales which shows the victory of hegemonic knowledge and the subalternization of childhood and others knowledges than not the dominant. Through the considerations of Foucault about the work in modernity, the criticism of the dominant paradigm of Santos, and the representations of childhood and work within the school and the children's literature, based on Ariès and Zilberman, the categories raised allowed the analysis of the tales The Adventures of Pinocchio and The Three Little Pigs by linking them to their discursive, social and historical aspects and led us to understand education like way of perpetuation of the image of work propagated by the dominant paradigm and of subalternization of others knowledges.
