A ditadura civil - militar nos livros didáticos do ensino fundamental

Abstract

Assuming that textbooks are intricate works and have a plot that involves production, distribution and consumption, this article examines the representation of the civil-military dictatorship of Brazil, from two textbooks, "History of Brazil: Empire and Republic" of Aldo Fernandes, Maurício Soares and Neide Annarumma; this work, being part of the collection Marshal of the Army Trompowsky of the Army Publisher, the Library of the Army, used in Military Colleges, and the work of "Araribá Project: history" organized by publisher Moderna and used in public schools in Brazil. Without ignoring the elements that involve a didactic production, these works were chosen to elucidate two social worldviews, addressing the considerations, issues that underpin these views. This comparison enriches and illustrates these differences in the production of textbooks, considering the complexity involved in the didactic works, as shows the symbolic phenomena that sustain the yearnings deposited in textbooks of those who represent them.
