Abstract

This article discusses Jonathan Serrano’s renewal proposal for
the teaching of History in the first decades of the Twentieth-
century. We focus on his career as a student and teacher at
Colégio Pedro II, his concept of History and History teaching,
and the importance that he attributed on this discipline. The
institution assured him the necessary prestige to enter the
educational debates of the period. We argue that his efforts to
defend the renewal, as a path to improve history education in the
country, preserving the moral and social values obtained at the
Pedro II School, is correlated to his concept of history, and
should be read under the light of the process of recasting
Brazilian education in the early 1930s.
