This study analyzes the book “Mestre de Meninos” “The Boys’ Master” (1983), written by Paraná intellectual and educator Erasmo Pilotto (1910-1992). The book is based on a speech Pilotto gave upon receiving the title of Honoris Causa awarded by the Human Sciences Sector of the Federal University at Paraná in 1982. In addition to the commemorative character of the work, it presents the teaching concepts Pilotto advocated, mainly the role assigned to "boy’s masters" or “school masters”, a reference to elementary school teachers. Pilotto defends the role of these professionals in his effort to define the role of elementary school teachers and pedagogues. The theoretical support for the study were Pierre Bourdieu's contributions on trajectory and field, which were used to analyze the place occupied by Pilotto in the state educational sphere.
