This article aims to analyze the autobiographical writing and education in Piauí through a bibliographic search of the works, Frases e Notas and Escritos de Vário Assunto, by Cristino Castelo Branco. As a theoretical framework for analysis, this study is based on the assumptions of the following authors: Brito (1996); Mendes (2012); Queiroz (2008); Ferro (1996); Lopes (2006, 2010) and Gomes (2004), among others. As a timeframe, the year of 1892 was chosen for being the year of his birth, and the year of 1931 as the end, due to his entry as Judge in Piauí State Court of Justice. The analyzes comprised in this study lead to reflections on the writing of the self, becoming a teacher, school premises and educational ideals in Piauí during the First Republic, based on the work of Cristino Castelo Branco.
Keywords : Writing of the Self; Educational Thinking; Education in the First Republic.
