AZEVEDO, Nair Correia Salgado de  and  LIMA, José Milton de. The childhood civilizing process through the body: a little bit of what History tells us. Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.20, e014.  Epub Jan 29, 2022. ISSN 1982-7806.  https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v20-2021-14.

The question of curtailing children's bodies in schools through disciplinarization leads us to reflect on when and why such pedagogical practices based on this vision became actions within "normality" over decades of public schooling in Brazil. This article is based on the assumption that many repressive actions of the playful, unfortunately very common in many school contexts and that result in a corporal discipline, are results of historical impositions to the children. It is possible to infer that many historical events contributed to the fact that such visions still prevail in the school context, which consequently results in an education that is plastered and that tends not to value the Children's Children's Cultures present within the schools. It is important to think that, regardless of corporal disciplinary impositions, our children continue to produce culture - what seems to us worthy of new discussions, is how we can change our historically acquired view on this subject.

Keywords : Childhood; Disciplinarization of the body; History of Education.
