9 Programa Brasileiro Na G6, ingressamos de forma mais independente no estudo da literatura em língua portuguesa através do tema: o Herói e o Sujeito. De quem falamos na literatura? Quem escreve e para quem se escreve literatura? É nessa etapa que colocamos em xeque o papel do narrador e dos personagens nos textos literários e iniciamos também as discussões sobre o papel do leitor nesse ciclo de escrita e endereçamento do discurso. Em BSS, falamos sobre a chegada dos europeus ao Brasil, o povoamento das Américas, o período colonial e a organização da sociedade da época.
