Olhar o currículo, enxergar leis naturais: aproximações a partir do Leviatã.

The paper intertwines the Hobbesian curriculum elements presented at Leviathan's chapter XXX with Natural Laws described in chapters XIV and XV. The analysis was divided in 4 phases: 1) listing chapter XXX educational contents; 2) finding Natural Laws aspects which were potential equivalents to the content listed; 3) comparing pertinent arguments and theoretical points to those correspondences; 4) emphasizing interpretative insights that resulted from the analytical comparison. Such methodological approach justifies the few references to texts other than Leviathan. Amongst the findings, the paper underlines that all curriculum elements could be articulated with, at least, one Natural Law, being the third law the most frequent. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
