By myśleć, przeżywać, doświadczać… Szkolna lektura wobec paradygmatów zewnętrznych wspólnot interpretacyjnych
To Think, To Feel, To Experience… Required Reading and the Paradigm of External Interpretative Communities

Summary/Abstract: According to Stanley Fish an interpretative community is a social group that constructs its identity on shared values and common understanding. It is often created in relation to literature – or, more broadly, culture – which nurtures a specific axiology within its bounds. Within this space education plays the role of an institutional regime of imposing interpretations subservient to ideology. Meanwhile, reading should offer students the possibility to gain knowledge, and above all, to get to know themselves, other people, and the surrounding world. This requires negating the external, stereotypical way of perceiving literature and culture. The answer to the official structuring of school reading, and at the same time to the consequences of the digital turn, may be found in the construction of another interpretive community – that created in a particular class, by individuals (the teacher and the students) – based on the subjective experience of literature and on the openness towards other people.
