Resumo: Comic books have historically occupied a subaltern position among mass culture products developed in the 20th century. This paper revisits some historical episodes that show how society and academia in the U.S. and Latin America have treated the comic book industry with reservations. The second half of the century, though, has witnessed the reversal of such attitude. Comic books have been reevaluated and their aesthetic value has finally been acknowledged. It is argued in the paper that the National Program of School Libraries (PNBE) has had a pivotal role in the ongoing process of legitimization and consolidation of the comic book industry in Brazil.

O presente artigo revisita alguns episódios históricos que comprovam a desconfiança e reserva que a academia e a sociedade estadunidense e latino-americana desenvolveram em relação à indústria de quadrinhos. A segunda metade do século, entretanto, testemunhou a reversão de tal quadro com a reavaliação da importância das HQs e reconhecimento de suas propriedades artísticas. O artigo defende o argumento de que no Brasil o Programa Nacional Biblioteca da Escola (PNBE) tem tido um papel determinante no inacabado processo de legitimação e consolidação da indústria de quadrinhos no Brasil.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2012-11-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/faced/article/view/11765Educação; Vol. 35 No. 3 (2012): Dossier - Literary Education: Public Policies in reading, readings and formation of readersEducação; Vol. 35 Núm. 3 (2012): Dossiê - Educação Literária: Políticas Públicas de leitura, leituras e formação de leitoresEducação; v. 35 n. 3 (2012): Dossiê - Educação Literária: Políticas Públicas de leitura, leituras e formação de leitores1981-25820101-465Xreponame:Educaçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSporhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/faced/article/view/11765/8391Bahia, Marcioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-11-06T16:30:54Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/11765Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/faced/indexONGhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/faced/oaieditora.periodicos@pucrs.br||reveduc@pucrs.br1981-25820101-465Xopendoar:2012-11-06T16:30:54Educação - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
