SÃO OS LIVROS E OS VIDEOJOGOS INCOMPATÍVEIS?

WORKSHOP

Has the emergence of technology irreversibly changed our relationship with fiction and literature? Is it possible to replicate the experience of reading a book in the act of mastering a video game? 
The idea persists that young people are turning away from the narrative or fictional dimension of literature, to focus on film, television and video games. The interactive nature of video games, which places control on the hands of the player — diminishing the role of the narrator —, seems to have made the literary tradition somehow inconvenient. But is this the only and inevitable path? Or can we recover the kind of literature that does not involve elves, barbarians and dragons for the imaginary and experience of video games? 
This workshop - "São os Livros e os Videojogos Incompatíveis?" (Are Books and Videogames Incompatible?) - for high school students seeks to answer these questions, by exploring the relationship between literature and video games.
