Abstract

This article is the product of an ongoing research report on the reception of Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi’s thought in Brazil and its presence in the Escola Novas (New School) ideology. This article uses a bibliographic method and intends to show that the pedagogy of Pestalozzi impacted the Escola Nova pedagogical thought through a proposal of active pedagogy. Indirectly it is possible to perceive the influence of the Pestalozzian thought on the works of Rui Barbosa; however, it effectively arrived in Brazil thanks to the Russian pedagogue Helena Antipoff, who after studying in Geneva, came to the country bringing the pedagogical ideas of the Swiss pedagogue. The cited authors Soëtard (2010), Arce (2002), Incontri (1996) discuss Pestalozzi and his conception of learning. Furthermore, Pestalozzi (1889) elaborates on the intuitive method. This article intends to draw parallels between Pestalozzian precepts and the ideas of the Escola Nova.
