Bibliographical references about Islam in Brazil
a case on Gilberto Cotrim’s and Cláudio Vicentino’s textbooks
Keywords:
Islam, textbooks, PNLD (EM), OrientalismAbstract
Islam has had great exposure in the western media since the Iranian Revolution (1979) and such movement is also noted in Brazil. This interest has also manifested itself in the history textbooks, which in the last century have reversed the focus from antiquity to contemporaneity and included Islam in many chapters. Given this, we trace which authors serve as reference for the composition of the didactic texts and how this role has changed in the last decades, especially with the escalation of the association between Islamic extremism and terrorism in the media on the one hand and, on the other, the creation and expansion of National Textbook Program, more specifically its high school segment, the PNLD (EM). Our article reveals peculiarities about the process of producing textbooks in the PNLD Era by concluding that the cited bibliographic references are used very freely in order to satisfy PNLD requirements.
