Abstract

MENDEZ, Jorgelina. Entre Europa e América: a escrita da história da Educação na Argentina por Lorenzo Luzuriaga. Rev. Bras. Hist. Educ [online]. 2014, vol.14, n.03, pp.223-244. ISSN 2238-0094.

The book History of Education and Pedagogy by Lorenzo Luzuriaga has the distinction of being a book published in America but written by a European. From this point emerges our interest in analyzing the visions of ‘America’ that underlie this book, thus understanding how they relate to the ‘history of education’ on this continent. However, it is necessary to contextualize this text, originally published in Argentina. On the one hand, in relation to the author and his career as an intellectual, college professor, author and editor of numerous books; on the other hand, in relation to the historiography of education in Argentina. We investigate the characteristics of his work and then get into the visions that the author introduces about America, focusing on the words he used to name the continent throughout the book.

Keywords : Textbooks; Editorial Work; History of Education Writing; Historiography of Argentine Education; Renderings of America.
