material and subjective, that guide the constitution of speakers, readers and writers in particular,
from experiences lived in the different social spheres and, in particular, in Health and
Education.
The studies presented here, despite the diversity of background and activity of their
authors, are aligned with the understanding that the constitution of subjects as speakers, readers
and writers can expand or restrict effective participation and taking a position in relationships
and forms of social organization. They are aligned, therefore, with the understanding that acting
and saying are human activities that go hand in hand, always addressed to the other, situated in
certain times, spaces and purposes. Finally, they start from the assumption that such activities
cannot be at the service of homogenization/standardization/classification,
naturalization/legitimation of prejudices, discrimination/segregation, but the production of
singularities and collectivities that recognize diversity as a human condition.
We hope that the reading of these articles illuminates and reiterates conceptions and
practices of literacy(s) as capable of enhancing authorship, in short, of contributing to the
recognition that people should occupy the place of those who have what to say, to whom to say
it, with intentions, positions and values.
The dossier “Languages and Literacies: Perspectives and intersectoral dialogues”
opens with the article “For a discursive practice of literacy: Making arguments explicit”,
written by researchers Ana Luiza Bustamante Smolka, Ana Lúcia Horta Nogueira and Daniela
Dias dos Anjos. In the text, the authors contribute to the explanation of arguments that support
a discursive practice of literacy. Taking as material for analysis the speeches of literacy teachers
in meetings of a study group, they highlight some of the observations, questions and
considerations shared by them, related to the work carried out in the daily life of the school. In
dialogue with Vygotsky, Bakhtin and the Circle and Freinet, seek to highlight, in the experience
of these teachers, conceptions, implications and repercussions of an incorporated theory.
“Alphabetization and (post-) pandemic: Intercurrences in the process of
constituting readers and writers”, by Vilma Aparecida de Souza, Cairo Mohamad Ibrahim
Katrib, Klívia de Cássia Silva Nunes, Valéria Moreira Rezende, is the second of the articles
that make up the next number. In the writing, the researchers analyze the process of literacy and
literacy, in the context of the Coronavirus pandemic disease (New Coronavirus Disease -
COVID-19), during 2020, 2021 and 2022, in public schools in two municipalities in Minas
Gerais and the implications for the training process of children, considering the training of
writers and readers.
