Abstract

The purpose of this dissertation is to research the creation of the libraries in São Paulos public schools from 1890 to 1920, considering that the reading space and book conservation was foreseen in floor plans, governmental enactments and debates for the public instruction reformation in Republics first years. Considering that these projects and regulations didnt permit to estimate if, in practice, libraries would exist and what reasons, purposes and practices permeated this spaces creation and use in Primary School, we tried to understand the constitution of a specific support space for teachers and students education in Public Schools, the school library, to understand these practices in the educational context of Republic first decades. The analysis of printed and handwriting sources laws, enactments, reports, official letters, yearbooks, projects and regulations, besides educational magazines such as A Eschola Publica (1893-1897) and Revista de Ensino (1902-1918) founded in Arquivo do Estado de São Paulo is the start point of this research. We have as reference the historiography approach identified as Cultural History, specially the works of Antonio Viñao Frago and Dominique Julia about school culture and Roger Chartier and Robert Darnton about the History of Reading.
