This paper re-opens the trendy debate on the use of multicultural literature in the Foreign Language classroom as a means to educate in tolerance for the differences aroused by otherness. We offer a comprehensive survey of the most salient authors who support the use of literature in the FL classroom and studies which bet for the benefices of multicultural literature. Finally, to conclude the debate, we offer a great array of children’s and young adult’s multicultural literature to be exploited in the classroom from a didactic point of view. These deal with culture and sexual orientation issues.
Este artículo reabre el debate sobre el uso de la literatura multicultural en el aula de Lengua Extranjera como medio para educar en la tolerancia ante las diferencias derivadas de la otredad. Ofrecemos un recorrido panorámico por los autores más sobresalientes que defienden el uso de la literatura en el aula de LE y estudios que avalan los beneficios de la literatura multicultural. Finalmente, concluimos el debate presentando una elaborada propuesta didáctica de explotación de textos literarios infantiles y juveniles que tratan temas multiculturales de cultura y orientación sexual.
