We prioritize the analysis of historical consciousness from the relationship between the culture of violence and the culture of peace, based on the study of Greek mythology, highlighting the pedagogical elements of the Myth of Medea in the relationship between Classical Greece and Contemporary Brazil through Theater of the Oppressed, used here as a tool for social, political, economic and cultural transformation. The product of the dissertation consists in the elaboration of a material for the study and formation of teachers, presenting the reading, interpretation and possibilities of transforming the culture of violence into a culture of peace of manifestations of social and school violence.
