Abstract

The alliance between the Catholic Church and the medical field in the first decades of the twentieth century contributed to set up educational projects addressed to families through educational guidance manuals which aimed ensure, in different ways, the government of the Brazilian population. This paper analyzes the representation of such printed production in Brazilian society from the books: "Nubents and Spouses: marriage troubles", by Monsignor Alvaro Negromonte and the book "Make your child happy: the mental hygiene of children and adolescents", by Fernando Magalhães Gomes, M.D. These books had in common the production of na active social group in society, educated within the bonds of Catholicism and Mental Hygiene. The dialogue with authors like Chartier allowed for scrutinizing the books, considering the trasmitted content and rhetorical strategies (Bourdieu, 2007) used, but also the clues and signs left in its materiality emerge meanings equally important to the reading and analysis of this font.
