Would pedagogical manuals be closer to a book or a recipe? Taking this question as a starting point, this article analyzes five titles published between 1873 and 1909 - Compêndio de pedagogia by Antônio Marciano da Silva Pontes (1873) Pedagogia e metodologia by Camillo Passalacqua (1887), Lições de pedagogia by Valentim Magalhães (1900), Compêndio de pedagogia by Dario Vellozo (1907), and Tratado de metodologia by Felisberto de Carvalho (1909). By exploring the references to pedagogy in those texts, their reasons and identities, we observe that it is sometimes referred to as science, and sometimes as art. Moreover, through the analysis of the metaphors used in the teachers’ guides, it is possible to identify the images from which pedagogical knowledges are defined and presented as reading material for the teaching practice.
