SOARES, Waléria de Jesus Barbosa. ROBERTO MOREIRA, PARTICULAR CLASSES AND THE TEACHING OF ARITHMETICS IN THE 19TH CENTURY. Rev. Exitus [online]. 2019, vol.9, n.2, pp.161-185.  Epub 19-Jul-2019. ISSN 2237-9460.  https://doi.org/10.24065/2237-9460.2019v9n2id861.

We present an investigation about Roberto Antonio Moreira, a maranhense, professor and author of mathematical books, who lived in the city of São Luís in the 19th century. Through his history of life we aim to construct a biographical text as far as the data allowed to rescue, besides weaving considerations about his professional life in the publication of his works. The present text, with a qualitative methodology, is a documentary approach, which uses primary sources from the archives of the Benedito Leite Public Library, the Public Archive of the State of Maranhão and the Liceu Maranhense. We are theoretically based on Bittencourt (2004), Ferrarotti (2010), Morais (2017), Paulilo (1999) and Valente (2008). We believe that uncovering life histories of authors of mathematics books brings us closer to the understanding of how mathematics teaching was built at the place and time investigated - and this contributes to compose a picture of Brazilian studies.

Palabras clave : Life's history; History of professional life; Math’s teacher.
