Reading, reception and constructions significant in texts of black writers

The following work reflects on the importance of the subject reader in the sphere of literary production, as from authors as Jauss (1979), Eagleton (2006), Orlandi (2006), among others. Combining the theory to analysis of texts the black writers, Fátima Trinchão, Jocelia Fonseca, Mel Adún and Rita Santana, we observe as reading, per a cultural perspective, here signified by the axes of gender and race, can produce significant effects on the social construction of the subject reader.
