Possibilities of Using Aharon Appelfeld´s Publication Adam and Thomas in Teaching Literary Education
Original language description
The main aim of the paper is to point out the possibilities of implementing Aharon Appelfeld´s book Adam and Thomas (2013) in the educational process with a focus on Literary Education. We believe that this narrative has the potential to arouse the interest of different groups of readers, from beginners to experienced ones. The compositional construction provides a considerable space of indeterminacy into which readers may (but need to) plant their ideas about themselves, society, or the world, guided by Appelfeld´s philosophical and transcendental ideas in relation to not only faith and God. On the other hand, the plot of this book may also be of interest to readers who are not looking for an interesting storyline and the portrayal of the fates of the main characters in liminal situations, in this case set against the backdrop of the events of World War II. This war conflict in this artistic narrative is merely a backdrop that causes Adam, Thomas and Mina to find themselves in a situation where they must rely on themselves, which they each do in slightly different ways. Based on the content narrative analysis, we point out different plot levels, themes and motives that we believe can be worked with in the teaching of Literary Education at different levels of education. Our aim is to present the ways of possible work with an identical passage from a text in relation to the age of the pupils (first grade of primary schools, lower-secondary schools and secondary schools).
