RESUMO

This thesis had as purpose the analysis, in the perspective of gender discriminations, in Portuguese Language textbooks for students and teachers of the fourth degree of elementary schools, published in the period between 1975 and 2003. The analysis was produced in the interpretative contexts of the theory of ideology (Thompson, 1995), supported in the concept of gender proposed by (Scott, 1995), in Rosembergs theory on age relations (1996), as well as in the contemporary studies on gender/women. This knowledge provides apprehension conditions in terms of permanencies and changes of these discriminations in the considered period, adopting, for that, a diachronic perspective. With this intent one adopted the methodological perspective of Thompson (1995), involving three stages. The first one was the sociohistorical analysis, having as purpose to analyze the specific contexts and socially structured where the symbolical forms here considered as textbooks, were produced, constructed and reproduced. The second stage, the formal analysis or discursive one, consisted of an internal analysis of these symbolical forms, through the analyses of the content. In the third one, in the interpretation/reinterpretation of the gender ideology as a process of synthesis in which one searched to articulate the results of the former steps. For the quantitative analysis it was used as sample thirty-three textbooks of Portuguese language, from which it was selected two hundred and fifty one reading units, with one thousand and three hundred seventy two characters. In the illustrations of the same units we observed six hundred fifty characters and one hundred twenty illustrated in the book covers. The contexts analyses of the textbooks production as well as the formal analyses, enabled to develop the thesis that, spite the whole movement in the field of the production of these books; of the increment of the sex/gender theme in the agenda of the public politics represented in the legislative educational diversity; of the evaluations made by The Ministry of Education/MEC, represented by PNLD, the text book remains as a means of gender discriminations, in spite of presenting changes, even though, still insufficient
