A educação geográfica numa perspectiva de interdisciplinaridade: Literatura e Geografia

Abstract

This paper aims to discuss issues that involve classroom practices in an interdisciplinary perspective. This part from the literary work "The Continent I" written by Erico Verissimo alongside geographical concepts of space, territory, place and territorial identity. It intends to consider the articulation between Literature and Geography as contribution to the construction of knowledge and to the formation of students. Regarding Geography, it is remarkable that this practice contributes to geographic education since it allows the concepts to be developed in a non-fragmented way. Regarding Literature, the contribution is through the relation between fiction and the world of life. Concluding, it is understood that both disciplines worked together allow the student to establish relationships, reflections and understandings about the world they live in.
