Uma nova abordagem interdisciplinar: da Escrita Criativa aos Estudos Crítico-Criativos

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:There is an historical antipathy between Literary Theory (LT) and Creative Writing (CW) as an academic subject. CW teachers see LT as dogmatic, rigid and with a complex jargon. On the other side, LT specialists dismiss CW as a merely experimental area, comparatively young in academic curricula. However, a growing number of CW teachers understand the absolute need to resort to LT, to better teach young aspiring writers. I am referring to concepts; technical aspects; notions related to versification and narratology; techniques, etc. Are we watching the development of a new field, the Creative and Critical Studies? In this paper, based upon my experience as a writer, and a Literary Studies and CW teacher, I intend to demonstrate the benefits of this interdisciplinary approach.
