How female characters in children's literature can teach in the educational field
"Smart women, healthy relationships", that is the title of Augusto Cury's book - writer, psychiatrist and specialist in psychoanalysis - that identifies some types of women, their relationship with the world and the power of transformation based on their experiences.
Women are constant targets of discussions about fragility experiences.ality in a world still dominated by men. But in the twentieth century does this concept have the same weight as before?
In this post, we will submit the question to the educational universe, showing how schools have dealt with the variables imposed by modernity - education, character and personality, gender equality, intimidation, family relationship and disposition for the knowledge.We will contextualize a bit, using as reference some female characters in children's literature, showing a comparison between the imaginary world of some female figures and the characteristics in terms of children's behavior in line with an increasingly complex reality.
The female characters in children's literature what can they teach in the pedagogical environment?
