THE ENCHANTMENT OF FREIREAN PEDAGOGY
Keywords:
Paulo Freire, Education, Praxis, EnchantmentAbstract
In this paper, we reflect on the experiences of Paulo Freire, socialized in the books “Letters to Cristina: reflections on my life and my praxis” (Cartas a Cristina: reflexões sobre a minha vida e minha práxis) and “Fear and daring: the teacher's daily life” (Medo e ousadia: o cotidiano do professor), which show the constituent bases of the enchantment of Freirean pedagogy. Paulo Freire's history with education is worthy of reflection, as his practice led him to idealize a popular education that aimed to make people aware, especially the oppressed and excluded social classes, with a view to social, cultural and political emancipation, what by itself is an indication of his belief in the liberating power of education. Through the reading of these books, we use the five-dimensionality of González (2008) as a methodology to analyze his experiences, focusing on the five dimensions (methodological, epistemological, ontological, axiological and teleological) proposed by him. Besides Freire (2008, 2019 and 2021), scholars of the patron of Brazilian education such as Haddad (2019) and Gadotti (2011), are used to collaborate with the reflection. This study showed us that Freire's life and experiences reinforce the constituent bases of his ideas and, based on them, after a critical treatment, he gave his pedagogy political and epistemological recognition, evidencing his enchantment.
