Abstract
This text deals with a facet of the vast field of the history of sensibilities in the research of the History of Education, having as its starting point the constitutive material of the personal and intellectual collection of the historian Sandra Jatahy Pesavento, which is deposited at the Historical and Geographic Institute of Rio Grande do Sul (IHGRGS), in Porto Alegre, Brazil. It presents the collection and its components in a succinct way, outlines an overview of some reflections on the sensibilities in the History of Education, and ends in the argumentation on the field of sensibilities as a method of historical analysis, based on the contributions of Pesavento and in interface with the History of Education.
