Mia couto: por uma pedagogia da doce ira

This dissertation reveals and assesses the important ideas in the work of the Mozambican Mia Couto with the purpose of suggesting the principles of what we call a Sweet Wrath Pedagogy. It presents a proposal of ethical and political basis that aims at sensitizing Latin American and Brazilian educators for the construction of a complex education in a transdisciplinary basis in order to potentialize creativity. In an intelligible, simple, affectionate and seductive manner, this work triggers a discussion which is able to raise the will of breaking free from a world mastered by the monoculture of mind (Vandana Shiva) and responsible for the imposition of values such as individualism and competition. Given the magnitude of Mia Couto‟s work, it was selected two books of a more political and essayistic nature to establish the grounds for the dissertation, namely: Pensatempos. Textos de opinião (2005) and E se Obama fosse africano? E outras interinvenções (2009). Additionally, interviews given by the author for magazines, newspapers and electronic media are used. The novels, short stories, poems, chronicles and essays were organized and clustered in frames so as to give the reader a broad view of the author‟s work. Of a bibliographic nature, this dissertation dialogues with thinkers like Edgar Morin, Maria da Conceição de Almeida, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Teresa Vergani, among others. The dissertation is situated in the interface between literature, politics, and education. ; Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) ; A dissertação expõe e problematiza as ideias importantes presentes naobra do moçambicano Mia Couto, com vistas a sugerir princípios pedagógicos do que chamamos de uma Pedagogia da Doce Ira.
