摘要:The vast academic production about cities is proportional to the interest of numerous branches of knowledge on the subject. Since it was impossible to evaluate the entire production, even if limited only to areas selected for this presentation – architecture and history –, we chose the following topics: at the architects field, we chose those that refer to the historiography as subject of analysis of plans and cities operations planning, procedures for cleaning of areas of the city and the processes involving issues of housing for low-income population. We discussed the concepts of history running through these studies, to strengthen the valuable and essential dialogue between history and architecture, and to inquire the most significant features of this approach. In the field of historians, we present a survey of research on urban issues and critically analyze the contributions and explanatory paradigms of the field of history employed in studies of cities. The perception of an oblique presence of the city as a theme for the Brazilian historiography justifies and directs a critical assessment of the options from historians, as well as the discussion of dilemmas and possibilities of approach.
