Uma nova relação homem-natureza: uma perspectiva de ensino decolonial a partir da literatura indígena

Abstract

The dissertation investigates the application of Indigenous literature for teaching Indigenous history in basic education. It proposes engaging with contemporary Indigenous literature and its didactic and methodological elements to explore Indigenous themes, evaluating their potential. The objective is to present an innovative approach to teaching Indigenous history, based on decolonial studies, with the aim of broadening knowledge and appreciation of Indigenous history, sensitizing students to its importance, and promoting its visibility through literature produced by Indigenous people themselves. The propositional part of the dissertation includes the development of a guidebook with guidelines and suggestions for teachers, exploring the potential of Indigenous literature from a decolonial perspective. From this, fundamental themes such as the relationship between humans and nature, identity issues, and Indigenous authorship are addressed, so that Indigenous literature can promote dialogue with the field of history teaching, benefiting teachers in active practice.
