LEARNING TO READ THE TIME: A HISTORY ABOUT TEACHING CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE PERCEPTION OF NATURE

ABSTRACT

This article aims to contribute to the understanding of the historical relations between climatic variations and emotions. The main intention is to perceive some changes that occurred regarding what people could read about the climate in school books of geography and the first Brazilian children’s magazine, Tico-Tico. This is the result of a broader research on the relationship between climate and melancholia, in which the transformations of sensibilities in the ways of perceiving the seasons and the atmospheric characteristics are closely related to the profile emotions and their history.
