The study proposes the incorporation of authentic multicultural literary texts in the EFL classroom as a means to develop intercultural communicative competence (ICC). Data were collected to show how learners acquired cultural knowledge, developed critical intercultural skills, and created positive attitudes -aspects of Byram’s model of ICC– when they read literary short stories. Findings show that integrating language and literature in EFL constitutes a pedagogical contribution to construct critical intercultural awareness. 2013 artículo científico 0123-4870 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=345932041007 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3459 Revista Folios application/pdf Universidad Pedagógica Nacional Revista Folios (Colombia) Num.38
