LEITURA E CRÍTICA DO CONHECIMENTO NA CONTEMPORANEIDADE

Abstract

linked to the intellectual’s role, reading is not only reflection of knowledge power but
it is also a remarkable trace of a critical activity, based on the knowledge revision and the
definition of these same terms – knowledge, criticism, wisdom. Under the perspective of
comparative literature and knowledge production, this article aims at considering the reading
nature as a form of knowledge appropriation, to which is supposed within its own exercise and
execution currently, the mission of distance and “articulatory” (re)placement from knowledge
itself; remodeling it throughout its transformations and through the various nets that
comprehend it, particularly when remodeled by the “contemporary view”.
