Between the last decades of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, several Italian schools were created in the city of São Paulo, maintained by the students' families and relying on subsidies in books, materials and money sent by the Italian government. This article aims to understand educational policies, production, circulation and distribution of textbooks for the Italian peninsula and for Italian schools abroad, considering those sent as a subsidy that circulated in Brazil in the early years of the 20th century. Anchored in the contributions of the History of Education and Cultural History and having documental analysis as the adopted procedure, this text takes as a privileged source Giovanni Soli's Libro d'appunti, as reports on schools in São Paulo, as well as laws, correspondence, reports from consuls, official letters, dispatches, ministerial circulars and the yearbook of Italian schools. Books are considered cultural artifacts that are located in the articulation between the prescriptions imposed by the official programs and the professors' speeches.

Palabras clave : Schoolbooks; Italian schooling; Italian immigration in São Paulo.
