PEREIRA, Anderson de Carvalho. Psychology, eugenics and day-to-day childhood education on brazilian newspapers (1893-1917). Psicol. educ. [online]. 2020, n.50, pp. 09-17. ISSN 1414-6975.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5935/2175-3520.20200002.

Eugenic ideas established a close relationship and were responsible for the scientific psychology arrival to Brazil, between mid 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. In this article, we demonstrate how the circulation of these ideals in day-to-day life consolidates a type of care with motherhood and early childhood education. For this purpose, two newspapers of great circulation from the period between 1893 and 1917 were analyzed. Through the concept of archive and according to the evidentiary paradigm of Ginzburg, parts of a materiality of daily life composed by these newspapers were analyzed, which allowed to analyze a discourse about childhood and childhood education, with emphasis on the role of a day-to-day psychology in the dissemination of these eugenic ideals.
