Summary: | This article aims to present a set of works that were published and/or translated in Portugal, at the end of the seventeenth century and all the eighteenth, which dealt with the care of children. Such printed productions were here taken as technologies of subjectivity and, therefore, operated effectively in the process of constitution of the modern child subject. From a historical and philosophical perspective, we characterize modernity as being a condition of possibility for the discursive proliferation over childhood. For a better systematization of the works, we have constituted six typological units, which are: those that state the care that should be taken with the child's body, its nutrition, good habits, morals to be built, the maintenance of the virtues Christian and, finally, those relating to educational processes. |
