This paper analyzes three Brazilian education classics, A Cultura Brasileira: Introdução à Cultura no Brasil(“The Brazilian Culture: Introduction to the Study of Culture in Brazil”), from 1943, by Fernando de Azevedo; the Jesuit educational method, known as Ratio Studiorum (1952), by Leonel Franca; and História da Educação Brasileira (“History of Brazilian Education”), from 1972, by Jose Antonio Tobias, addressing tradition and reflecting on teacher education and on the educational processes in the context of (re)visiting the tradition of the Society of Jesus. Thus, the goal is to approach tradition to understand the legacy, and basically to identify what we can learn from it when discussing teacher education and educational processes. The study is organized in two movements: the first one regards the historical contextualization of the Jesuit period, in addition to the deepening of their pedagogical method and the education of their teachers, according to the Ratio Studiorum. The theoretical and methodological perspective is grounded on language and on the theory of reception and recontextualization of the educational knowledge.

Keywords : Tradition; Jesuit education; Teacher education.
