Abstract

This text, in the attempt of bringing contributions for the understanding of the course of Pedagogy, leans over on the history of the course offered byUniversityofSciencesand Letters of UNESP of Araraquara, focusing their structures curriculares. For so much, they are analyzed the nomenclatures that composed the curricula of the course in their five versions (1959, 1969, 1979, 2000 and 2006), trying to explain his/her configuration to the light of the presuppositions of the cultural materialism, proposed by Welsh Raymond Williams (1921 -1988). In that sense, the text tries to show, considering their limitations, some put tensions during the processes of change of the curricula, as well as the forms as those processes are connected to the history of the course of Pedagogy in Brazil; for so much, it is been worth, for instance, of the put tensions between the specialist's of the education area formation and the teacher. He/she concludes advocating that, besides the concerning discussions to the own configuration of the scientific field the absence of a knowledge specifically pedagogic (that here passes the denominated being of dominant knowledge) it can be an explanatory factor for the countless crises that mark the history of the pedagogy course inBrazil.
