SP, as well as to comprehend which conception about the
teaching of reading is present in speeches, published in different
journals, from 1922 to 1936. To this end, as this research is a

Cultural History, that provides to the research a guiding for the
investigative approach on the representations concerning
teaching of reading on the articles published by this author in the
journals Revista Nacional and Revista Educação, and in the
newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo. Due to the fact of working
