MACHADO, Jarbas de Paula. Public Magistrary in Brazil: remuneration and first statutory tests. Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2022, vol.21, e128. Epub Sep 13, 2022. ISSN 1982-7806. https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v21-2022-128.
This article discusses the remuneration of the public teaching profession in Brazil, identified in the official norms, in the period between 1759 and 1889. It shows that in the analyzed period there was no recognition of teaching activity with evidences that point to decent salary conditions, especially for those that were dedicated to the "first letters". Nonetheless, it is suggested that the first statutory and career rules for the public teaching profession regulated by the State were established in this period.
