Resumo
We propose a study onthe reception of Paulo Coelho’s work by literary critics and readers, involving culture industry, from the perspective of Sociology of Literature.The research is justified by the large number of readers that Paulo Coelho’s work reaches: it is translated into 81 languages and it is read in 168 countries, with good acceptance by different readershipprofilesand by many literary critics from other countries.In Brazil, the writer’s productionis received with a littlereserve by literary criticism. The interventions of the culture industry are discussed through a dialogue established between Theodor W. Adorno, Max Horkheimer, Pierre Bourdieu, Umberto Eco, Luiz Costa Lima and Muniz Sodré. Then a discussion about aesthetic valueis established related to contemporary literature. Later, we discuss the recurring thematic elements and the closeness ofcoelhana’s narrative with orality, from the influence of songs written in partnership with Raul Seixas and the role of parable and fable genres.The critical reception is analyzed, based on studies of Mario Maestri, Eloésio Paulo, theses and dissertations, among others. The reader reception as theoretical contribution Antonio Candido and Roger Chartier, among others, supported on the Aesthetics of Reception, specifically in Hans Robert Jauss studies and Regina Zilberman.It is analyzed the reception of Paulo Coelho’ workby readers of thesocial network called Skoobin order to verify the level of gender, age, education, socioeconomic and cultural conditions and theirreading impressions. When we try to understand these subject readers, historically, and drawing on other aspects (rather than aesthetic) presented Sociology of Literature, it is possible to establish dialogues between the preferences of those readers with works already legitimized by theory and literary criticism, expanding their repertoire and also contributing to the mediation and promotion of reading in Brazil.
