Circle of learning: Miguilim and the others in his training route

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present the study of the book "Campo Geral" (1976) by Guimarães Rosa, centered on the analysis of the character Miguilim while in his training path. There is, in this narrative, a monitoring consciousness of the protagonist and the privilege of knowing the growth of strength and inner freedom of the child in adverse conditions. Beside the nature, the contact with the family microcosm of the boy prepares him for exiting the Mutum and watch the world. The analysis of this trajectory intends to highlight some approaches with the formation novel Emilio (2004), by Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
