Concedamos a liberdade de traçar: brincando de escrever um Dicionário de perfeições inventadas na oficina de escrita

Abstract

This paper aims at raising questions about writing, childhood and education, by narrating the story of the creation of a “dicionary of invented words”. This dictionary was made by children that participated in some writing workshops. Based on the relations between literature and psychoanalysis, the writing workshops were developed with different groups of children. The story of the Dictionary of Invented Perfections relates to the writings of Manoel de Barros and Roland Barthes.
