Abstract

The «city», as a teaching subject, has been a recurrent part of geographical teaching in the official government's program, and this since 1887. This constant place is related to the fact that a study of town brings to the students (who are tomorrow's citizens) knowledge to understand their living spaces, to take a part in their transformation, at their level. This article is based upon the analysis of the city as a subject in textbooks of elementary school. On the one hand, the semantical analysis brings a first knowledge about the study of the city, about the presented concepts, about the city's image in general. On the other hand, the statistical analysis will assess if those so often decried textbooks are adjusted to the pupils'aptitudes, so that the presented concepts may be understood by pupils aged 8-11 years.
