Pequeno livro de desmatemática Manuel António Pina: aesthetics inventive and literary competence

Abstract

This paper presents a reflection about the concept of literary competence and the implications of explicit child receptor literary text in its configuration. By using the analysis of the work Pequeno Livro de Desmatemática, from Manuel António Pina, one of the most original voices of the present Portuguese literary panorama, some examples of deeply innovating models of technical discursive strategies are presented, which potentially enhance literary competence.
