Educação e linguagem : a configuração da relação enunciativa eu-tu no processo de formação de conceitos em crianças com cegueira congênita

Abstract

This study aims at reflecting about whether the I-you relation produced within and through utterance contributes to the organization of information from senses other than sight in the process of spontaneous concept formation by children with congenital blindness. In order to contribute to the education of children with congenital blindness, this study also aims at analyzing how these children learn. This theoretical study is based on Saussure and Benveniste in the linguistics field; Vigotsky and Luria in the psychology field; and Selma Fraiberg and Mercy Leonhardt for support concerning the development of these children. Hence, the focus will be on the social and interpersonal aspectin the constitution of the subject, emphasizing the mediating role of culture in the development process of human verbal language.
