The pleasure of reading seems denied by the school when it deals with literary texts. In turn, the pleasure itself is not always positively evaluated by philosophers. However, as aesthetic pleasure, it synthesizes, since Aristotle, the sensitive reaction to artistic products. Recently, reading as a form of pleasure was the subject of the thought of Roland Barthes and Hans Robert Jauss, who, in different ways, describe it as liberation or emancipation. The exam of Vidas secas (Barren lives) shows to what extent the pleasure of reading derives from the disclosure, through language, of knowledge.Downloads
