Literature and psychology: the subjective constitution through the reading as experience. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2008, vol.60, n.2, pp. 02-09. ISSN 1809-5267.

This paper deals with the subjective constitution through the reading of the literary text, from a perspective that takes the reading as formation, deformation and transformation experience. At a first moment, it opposes positions that take a reading in its pedagogical role and in its uselessness as art. After that, it approaches the reading as experience that defies and transforms the reader. Finally, it explores the alterity of the classic literary text in that it has of strange, dislodger and traumatic. The text concludes with the defense of the use of reading of the classic literary text as part of the academic formation of the psychologists while professional of the human being and the human care.
