BATISTA, Bruno Nunes. Reflecting on the teaching of Geography as something done by commentators of sacred texts. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.68, pp.235-252. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.54642.

This article deals with the teaching of Geography, and teaching practice, starting from the tools of Michel Foucault as related to discursive formations, in general, and to commentary, in particular. The wish for knowledge orbits around understanding the truth regimes that compose this school subject. Going through texts from the first half of the twentieth century to the present day, from a panoramic description of their speeches, it was verified that the truth of school Geography goes from Fall to Redemption. By Fall, we mean the extinction of this field of knowledge, captained by the traditional teaching methodology; by redemption we mean bringing to fruition the discoveries of school psychologies and active pedagogies. In the midst of all this, the result is a discourse bound by sacred words, dividing right and wrong, and that has been making school writings a game of loaded dice, coordinated by intellectuals.
