Artikkelen søker å bidra til kunnskap om utvikling av fagspesifikk ferdighetsutøvelse, nærmere bestemt om litterær faglighet slik den kommer til uttrykk i meningsskapingen i møtet mellom leser/e og tekst. Slik kunnskap er en forutsetning for å svare på grunnleggende ideer både i Kunnskapsløftet og i Fremtidens skole (NOU2015:8). Artikkelen søker å besvare hvordan tre elever på vei inn i et mer akademisk preget litteraturfag skaper en plass for seg selv og hverandre i den litterære samtalen som faglig praksis. En litterær gruppesamtale mellom tre høytpresterende vg1-elever studeres i lys av James Paul Gees såkalte building tasks (2011). Primært studeres de forbindelsene (connections) elevene skaper i meningsskapingsprosessen. Analysene viser at elevene nærmer seg teksten på ulikt vis og aktiverer erfaringer fra ulike felt. De er engasjerte i samtalen og teksten, tar og gir hverandre plass i det faglige fellesskapet og trer inn i og former faglig identitet og praksis. De utfordringene elevene støter på i samtalen er knyttet til manglende redskaper for å håndtere tolkningsmangfold og teksters motstand, og artikkelen peker både på muligheter og utfordringer for praksis.

Abstract
This article seeks to contribute to knowledge of the development of disciplinary literacy practices, more specifically, literary disciplinarity – as it emerges in the meaning-making process between reader/s and text. Such knowledge is required in order to respond to fundamental ideas in the Norwegian Curriculum and the Official Public Report about the school of the future (NOU 2015:8). This article seeks to answer how three students entering a more scholarly literature subject than before, make a place for themselves and each other in the literary conversation as a disciplinary practice. By means of James Paul Gee’s building tasks (2011), particularly the connections the students build in their meaning-making process, a literary group conversation among three high achieving students in the beginning of upper secondary school is studied. The analyses reveal that the students approach the text in different ways, activating experiences from different fields. They are engaged in the conversation and the text, take and give each other a place in the disciplinary community, and enter and form the disciplinary practice. The challenges the students encounter during the conversation are connected to a lack of tools to handle the wide range of possible interpretations and the text’s obstacles. Hence, this article points towards both possibilities and challenges in matters of literature education.
