Adult lectures and childlike lectures. The universe of Kitty Crowther in the formation of the literary reading mediator

Abstract

There are a lot of investigations which are focused in thinking about literary reading mediator in school settings and his importance in literary reader´s formation. Here, the results generated by qualitative investigation, carried out by Comunidad Autónoma de Aragón collaborating with ELLIJ Group, from Zaragoza´s University; deepen in the difference between adults lecture and the children one. For instance, adult reader in his mediator scope refuses issues that have been always considered taboos in any child´s reading proposal. Nevertheless, childlike reader approaches to these issues with a special interest. One of the authors that best represents this different perception is Kitty Crowther. This article deepens in a lecture proposal of her work, starting from the necessity of redefining the childlike reader´s concept from a mediator scope.
