SILVA, Maria Célia Leme da. Geometric knowledges and the analytical method in the late nineteenth century. Rev. Diálogo Educ. [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.48, pp.301-319. ISSN 1981-416X.  https://doi.org/10.7213/dialogo.educ.16.048.DS02.

This research examines educational proposals of geometric knowledges for elementary school in the late nineteenth century. On the one hand, the adoption of the intuitive method means the framework of pedagogical renewal period and on the other hand, the analytical method is also widespread in the period, particularly for the teaching of reading. Analyzes the textbook Primeiras lições de coisas of Calkins, translated by Rui Barbosa in 1886 and published in the review A Eschola Publica of 1896 and 1897, signed by Oscar Thompson and Gomes Cardim. The aim is to answer: As the knowledge present in their intuitive motions with respect to the analytic / synthetic method? The study concludes that Oscar Thompson adapts and translates North American textbook that evidence the presence of the analytical method, Gomes Cardim proposed geometry lessons to the synthetic method and the third position Calkins recommending and emphasizing analytical and synthetic processes simultaneously.
