Description
Summary:The object of this paper is the teaching of sociology at ‘Colégio Pedro II’ School between 1925 and 1945. It aims to clarify how a particular organization of the didactic work is interlinked with the teaching of sociology, considering the discussion about the educational relationship and the textbooks. The primary sources are the Congregation’s records, the curricula and the compendium produced for this school subject. In conclusion, the analyses showed the educational relationship established in the teaching of sociology at ‘Colégio Pedro II’ School, mediated by the presence of textbooks. This revealed the role played by authors such as Delgado de Carvalho, who influenced the dissemination of the sociological knowledge, i.e., in the mediation between a given theoretical corpus and secondary school teachers and students.
