The study identifies influences and propositions for Physical Education presented by Rui Barbosa in his expert opinion on primary education. The documents analyzed were the opinion entitled “Reform of Primary School and Several Institutions complementary of Public Education,” published in 1883, and Executive Order 7247 of April 19, 1879. The study was characterized as qualitative, with Microhistory as its guiding theory for the analyzes. It also employed Content Analysis. Five influences were identified: the ancient Greeks; physiologists; modern nations; education thinkers; and gymnastics thinkers. The following propositions were found: gymnastics for both sexes; creation of a gymnastics section in schools; bringing a foreign teacher to work and train professional staff in Brazil; and equating Physical Education with other disciplines in importance.
