The main aim of this study was to verify the ways in which the English language teachers in that course have used literary texts in their classrooms. The specific objectives of the research were: 1) through the use of a semi-structured questionnaire, semi-structured interview and narratives, to investigate whether those teachers have made use of literary texts in their lessons; 2) to inquire about how and why they use them; and 3) to averiguate the students’ response to the activities proposed. The results showed that the teachers have used literary texts in many distinct ways, and that this tool has collaborated for their students’ target-language learning.porAcesso AbertoForeign languageTeaching and learningLiterary textsLíngua estrangeiraEnsino e aprendizagemTexto literárioArtigo10.12957/soletras.2013.7913
