The main objective of the research report which presented in the form of article was to critically analyze the Ratio Studiorum of 1599, the English edition of 1870, and its impact on teacher education by the Jesuits in Brazil, as well as find traces of the practice the Ignatian pedagogical and its influence on society in the period studied. For this purpose, we use the historiography that had access, in particular LEITE (1938), LACOUTURE (1994), FRANCA (1952), SCHMIT (1994), among others, and documentary sources of support, primarily using the critical hermeneutics to the analysis, interpretation and critical analysis of data collected, up to some findings, like the fact that the pedagogical action of the Jesuits was incorporated in the teaching practice in Brazil, marking it indelibly. The research also showed that education was chosen as the preferred option taken by the Society of Jesus, since its inception, and how education, based on the Ratio, the theoretical base  the Aristotelian Thomism, helped shape in the brazilian society the culture luso-european, based on order, discipline, obedience, authority, respect hierarchical rules.
