Field research was conducted at Museu Paulista in 2012 and it included documentation from the analysis regarding the Taunay management as well as the observation of educational work; also in 2013/2014 a research was carried out in London during my doctoral exchange program.

The thesis begins with a contextualization of the emergence of the National History Museums (turn of the eighteenth to the nineteenth century), the discussion of the relation between images and history and of concepts such as representation and visuality. It also shows the relation picture / history with regard to the pedagogical use of the image from the same time frame of the emergence of the National History Museums until the present day, focusing on the intuitive method of teaching (the lessons of things), on the methodology of heritage education and the one of education proposed as mediation. Finally, it presents the mediation work of the educators of Museu Paulista, especially in the exhibition designed by Affonso Taunay for the centenary of Brazil‟s Independence, and proposes an exercise in contextualization, analysis and imagination of the cultural mediation work that discusses the concepts of dissent (RANCIÈRE), symptom (DIDI-HUBERMAN), countervisuality (MIRZOEFF) ...
