This research shows an analysis of the strategies of didactic transposition adopted by authors of Brazilian theses and dissertations in the elaboration of didactic proposals of physics, guided by historical approaches. The research is divided into a general analysis of the set of all the didactic proposals selected and a detailed analysis of the didactic proposals that discuss conceptions about Nature of Science and that use Newton's Universal Gravitation as thematic. The didactic proposals were selected based on the reading of the titles, the abstracts and, when necessary, the summary and the presentation, in order to select the works that really interested the research. The analysis process was started from a thorough reading of the proposals and the analysis criteria were defined from the theoretical reference adopted (FORATO, 2009). The results show that the authors of the works analyzed adopted the strategy of interpreting the historical aspects emphasized in the excerpts from the primary sources that compose the proposals, in order to contribute to a diachronic understanding of the same. Furthermore, the episodes of the history of Universal Gravity, of the authors of the works, contributed to the conceptions about Nature of Nature to continue being didactic and approached throughout the application of the proposal.
