The importance of the concept perezhivanie in the constitution of transformative agent

Abstract

This article discusses the importance of the concept of perezhivanie in order to rethink the subjects’ development as transformative agents, who can trigger transformations in the collective context. To do so, it intersects studies of mobility and repertoire, based on Applied Linguistics, with the Vygotskian concept of perezhivanie aiming to expand the understanding of how the subjects’ development is carried out. Thus, it starts with the construction of recurrent semiotic resources, bearing in mind the lived perezhivanii that are recovered as invoked stories for the construction of new ways of being and acting. In teaching-learning contexts, this concept seems to acquire an essential role.
