Abstract

CAMPOS, Raquel Discini de  and  GUILLIER, Béatrice. Subversion and reiteration in the representation of the World in the franco-brazilian children's and youth press: Considerations on La semaine de suzette and O tico-tico in 1905. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2024, vol.28, e133853.  Epub Mar 31, 2024. ISSN 2236-3459.  https://doi.org/10.1590/2236-3459/133853.

The article analyzes the emergence of children's press in France and Brazil, questioning the uses that Human Sciences researchers have given to this potentially appealing documentary corpus. It also dialogically discusses the emergence of this niche of publication in Brazil and France, comparing two emblematic illustrated magazines from the beginning of the 20th century: the French La Semaine de Suzette and the Brazilian O Tico-Tico, both created in 1905. It analyzes four inaugural covers of these two commercial successes, trying to show the existence of a particular feature of the covers of the Brazilian magazine compared to the French: the presence of discursive carnivalization, in the terms advocated by Bakhtin (1980). It is shown that O Tico-Tico subverts gender, age and social class hierarchies, particularly those relating to the idealized ways of being of children in relation to their parents, and of pupils in relation to their teachers.

Keywords : children's press; children's illustrated magazines; La Semaine de Suzette; O Tico-Tico; printed sources.
