MORA-OLATE, María Loreto. Proposal for reading a juvenile novel. Universidad y Sociedad [online]. 2022, vol.14, n.5, pp. 77-81.  Epub Oct 30, 2022. ISSN 2218-3620.

The purpose of this article is to propose a reading of the juvenile novel "Corazón de tinta", first part of the fantastic saga "Mundo de Tinta" written by Cornelia Funke. The theoretical approaches of Vladimir Propp are taken up, referring to the structure of oral narration and the concept of delocalized narratives, postulated by Gemma Lluch, which groups together the recent readings carried out by young people outside the canon imposed by school institutions. It is concluded that the narratives of oral tradition are still in force, with certain variations and where the intertextuality present in the novel, facilitates that its delocalization is not completely radical. Therefore, the novel "Corazón de tinta" could constitute a bridge with literary texts considered classics, being its reading a first approach to these texts, or motivating a rereading of them.
