Resumo

The final decades of the 19th century and the beginnings of the 20th century saw political, economic, and social changes for Brazil, which became republican. In cities, hygienist projects plundered the most vulnerable sections of the population in exchange for beautifying the city. Assuming a comprehensive conception of the educational process, it is possible to glimpse in the media vehicles and legislation - more precisely in the press and in the Municipal Code of Franca of 1910, our objects of study - an exercise of pedagogy of bodies, assuming a Foucaultian point of analysis. Indeed, typographic vehicles were leading in educating a peasant population that was becoming urban. The objective of this paper rests on this formulation, identifying ways of representing a portrait of this domain of gestures in selected local periodicals and in the legislative code.
