Sumario:The article deals with the production of the book Exposé moderne des mathématiques élémentaires, by theFrench author Lucienne Félix, and its reception in Brazil by the members of the Mathematics Teaching StudyGroup (GEEM), created in São Paulo in 1961. The author argues that the presentation of the work preceded thatof the author, not only in the chronological plane, but also from the point of view of the recognition, legitimacyand diffusion of ideas of innovation of teaching, within the international wave known as the ModernMathematics Movement. In its multiple translations and editions, the book traveled unexpected paths to a workof secondary school teacher that did not count with the support of the French government. In Brazil, itscirculation was restricted, but it was one of the references for the legitimization of GEEM itself and for theexchange of teachers with Lucienne Félix, during the 1960s.
