Resumen
This dissertation have the goal to investigate the representations about Mato Grosso present in
the school literature produced during the first Brazilian Republic (1889-1930), especially on
the issues of school discipline History. The chronological demarcation was established on the
basis of, between 1889 and 1930, the start of production of the first major works for the
construction of a collective imagination of Mato Grosso and thus strengthens the feeling of
belonging, with emphasis on the historical importance of Cuiaba and Mato Grosso by
intellectuals of the time. The study is based on theorists of Cultural History, taking as
categories of analysis the concept of imaginary developed by Bronisław Baczko, as well as
the notions of representation and appropriation proposed by Roger Chartier. In addition to
textbooks, lifting and critical analysis of sources available in the Public Archive Collections
of Mato Grosso (APMT), Historic e Geographic Institute of Mato Grosso (IHGMT) and of
the research group “History and Memory” of the Institute of Education of the Federal
University of Mato Grosso (GEM/IE/UFMT), such as: educational legislation, programs,
regulations and reports of public instruction and, also, the magazines and newspapers of the
time. Research has found that, in the textbooks produced in large Brazilian centers, Mato
Grosso was often presented as a distant and unknown land, of people violent and uncivil
manner. Or as a desert with almost no inhabitants, immense land waiting for people with
entrepreneurial spirit to explore its natural riches. This condition resulted in a negative image
of the state and of the customs and traditions of the peoples that inhabited its territory, mostly
in the vicinity of Cuiaba. These representations, part of the collective imagination of the
coastal elites, Cuiaba braved that, as a consequence, began to build local representations
disputing those coming from the coast.
