Literary Pseudo-Culture: the instrumentalization of literature in the new BNCC

Abstract:

The present essay discusses the process of instrumentalization of literature resulting from the closure of the area of Languages within the scope of the skills and abilities that structure the new BNCC. In order to do so, the argument is divided into two fundamental parts: first, it investigates the utilitarian nomenclature that controls the field of literature in the document; then, it debates what it really means to say human or integral formation in view of the intransitive operations of literature. The purpose here is to demonstrate that, even if in the name of a supposedly critical education, the BNCC weakens the formative condition of literature and of that which does not have immediate applicability.
