BOTTON, Fernando Bagiotto et al. Interfaces of the hero in Brazilian comics: didactic and political issues. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2019, vol.14, n.1, pp.163-180.  Epub Apr 17, 2019. ISSN 1809-4309.  https://doi.org/10.5212/praxeduc.v.14n1.009.

In this paper, three comic strips that refer to episodes from the Brazilian history area analyzed: Barão do Serro Azul, A Revolta de Canudos and Cumbe. With this, it is intended to provide analytical and political instruments for the educational praxis of History teachers of Basic Education The discussion begins by drawing a theoretical account of heroism and history, thus allowing the works studied here to be understood in a critical way. The concern is the political, didactic and historiographic dynamics involved in the use of these media in the classroom. In this sense the three comics studied present a gradient view in which the first contains an absolutely stereotyped view of these themes, the second an ambiguous view and the third a more in-depth and politically inclusive perspective. It concludes with the need to think about history and its teaching by valuing collective experiences beyond the heroic individualities.
