The article analyzes the representations of violence against women in five History textbooks approved in the PNLD of 2018 for High School.It is a discursive approach to representations, attentive to the historicity of their elaborations, discourses, values, senses and modes of functioning in the historical knowledge to be taught and learned in schools. The discursive and epistemic order in which such representations are inscribed promotes modes of subjectivation and ways to see, think, feel and treat this violence in the present time. Based on intersectional feminist studies, presents readings and possible approaches to didactic narratives in the classroom, with a view to teaching history to combat violence against women.
