A Literatura Africana no Ensino Médio: Análise da Coleção Português Contemporâneo: Diálogo, Reflexão e Uso (2016).

This research aims to analyze how Portuguese-speaking African Literature is presented in the Contemporary Portuguese collection dialogue, reflection and use, secondary education by the authors Cereja; Vienna; Damien (2016), adopted by the Anisio Veras Reference School, in the city of Verdejante-PE. The research is based on studies that address African Literature and its context of teaching in textbooks in high school, as we can highlight in Brazil (2008); Abdala Júnior (2006), Souza (2006), Machado (2010) Silva (2003), Sidrim (2019), Lopes (2010), Chaves (2006), Honwana (2006), Fonseca; Moreira (2017), Ferreira (1987), among others. The methodology used in the research was qualitative, documental and deductive method, Fachin (2006), Prodanov; Freitas (2013) and Cardano (2017). The results indicate that the teaching of African literature in the analyzed collection is little explored, since in volume I we hardly found any content; in volume II there is only a quote due to an interview carried out with the singer Emicida about racism and in volume III we are faced with only one chapter that presents a small discussion of texts and authors. In this way, we see that textbooks do not fully include studies aimed at African literatures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
