FIALHO, LIA MACHADO FIUZA y FREIRE, VITÓRIA CHÉRIDA COSTA. The formative education of a political leader from Ceará: Maria Luiza Fontenele (1950-1965). Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2018, vol.17, n.2, pp.343-364. Epub 01-Mayo-2019. ISSN 1982-7806. https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v17n2-2018-5.
This paper aims to understand Maria Luiza Fontenele’s educational process firstly within her family, later in primary and secondary institutions, and lastly at university, along with her political insertion (1950-1965). Maria Luiza Fontenele is a teacher, an educator and a politician: the first female mayor of a state capital in Brazil, specifically Fortaleza, in Ceará. Thus, the methodology is based on the biographical genre of Oral History (MEIHY; HOLANDA, 2007) for the collection of open interviews and the analysis of narratives. We conclude that Maria Luiza Fontenele’s education began with literacy at home with a lay teacher, and continued with primary and secondary education, respectively, at “Colégio Sagrado Coração de Jesus” and “Colégio Nossa Senhora de Lurdes”, with Marian ideals. Secondary education, at “Liceu do Ceará”, took place in concomitance with her political education initiated at the Student Guildand the Young Catholic Students. Her higher education studies in Social Work, at the “Universidade Federal do Ceará”, enabled her engagement in the Student Movement and her social and political activities, especially in Pirambu.
