The centrality of the subject as an object and the knowledge production's protagonist in modernity, tells the story and the production of true knowledge, the description of a place of normality as opposed to the abnormality and ordering of the field of knowledge called Special Education. This is the subject of this article, which intends to look at Jean Itard's timeline reports where are described his operations and the consequent educational process of Victor, the wild boy. From the ordenation's point of view and the notion of normalization, withdrawn from foucautian studies, it was led to analyze fragments of Jean Itard reports as an event that allow to understand how these experiences from the early nineteenth century, constitute contemporary to the field of knowledge of Special Education.
