The thesis offers an examination of the use of the Bible in Viens vers le Pere, a Catholic catechetical series published between 1964 and 1969 for use in the primary schools of Quebec. It enjoyed great popularity from the 1960s to the 1980s and was translated into several languages and used in some fourteen countries. The series places particular emphasis on the use of the Bible in catechesis. The thesis investigates the method of biblical interpretation underpinning these catechetical resources and constitutes the first indepth study of the series. Developments in educational psychology and Catholic theology from the first half of the $20 sp{ rm th}$ century influence the use and interpretation of the Bible in this series. The thesis concludes that the Bible and typical experiences of young children are exploited as a means for presenting and understanding doctrine. / From a hermeneutical perspective, the thesis offers an exercise in metacriticism. The thesis suggests an alternative to the exploitation of the Bible and the experiences of the audience as a means to clarify doctrine. It concludes that catechesis should engender a dialogue between the scriptural world and the child's world in hopes of an encounter which would elucidate both.

O discurso utópico europeu, nos anos iniciais da evangelização, em que se teve a certeza da conversão dos indígenas ao catolicismo, é comparado à narrativa produzida na segunda metade do século XVI e início do XVII em que a descrença sobre o sucesso da empresa missionária é evidente / Abstract: : The following research attempted to present the different representations of indian salvation from the analysis of the sacrament of penitence in different moments of what is known as the spiritual conquest of Spanish America. This work compares the European utopian discourse that believed in the complete conversion of the indigenous population to Catholicism, particularly in the initial years of the evangelizing, to the narrative produced in the second half of the 16th and beginning of the 17th century where we can clearly see a disbelief in the success of the missionary campaign / Mestrado / Historia Cultural / Mestre em História
