| Abstract | |
School-based education becomes central in the political debates that took place in Brazil in the late nineteenth century, reaching out great social relevance. It was in this context that the First Reform of São Paulo¿s Public Instruction (1892) occurs. A very promising project at the time, the 1892 reform expressed the wishes of local republicans to provide formal education to the popular masses, making primary education compulsory. The professionalization of teachers, the rationalization of time, the institution of a graduated-based, simultaneous, and intuitive scholar system, the buildings built for the first schools¿ groups, and the acquisition of innovative materials for the schools were considered symbols of modernity in teaching and of propaganda of the recently established Brazilian Republic. This PhD thesis aims at analyzing the First Reform of São Paulo¿s Public Instruction through a critical assessment of the literature focused on understanding her. In general, this literature takes the reformist project as a result of a consensus reached between the São Paulo State Government and a political and intellectual elite, without taking into consideration the worldview that shaped the minds of the actors involved. This thesis emphasizes, therefore, the debates that took place in 1891, attempting to understand its meaning at that particular historical context, the conceptions of teaching incorporated by the actors, as well as those that had been abandoned by the political disputes of the time, particularly those that took place inside the São Paulo¿s Republican Party (Partido Republicano Paulista, PRP), and that, by its turn, have greatly influenced the paths drawn for the Reform of the Public Instruction (AU) | |
