SOARES, Edilene Alexandra Leal  and  GATTI, Giseli Cristina do Valle. Education for civic responsibility and patriotism at the Colégio Triângulo Mineiro of Uberaba (Minas Gerais, Brazil) in the 1940s and 1950s. Rev. Educ. Questão [online]. 2017, vol.55, n.43, pp.187-210. ISSN 1981-1802.  https://doi.org/10.21680/1981-1802.2017v55n43ID11812.

Analysis of the civic-patriotic practices developed at the Colégio Triângulo Mineiro de Uberaba (Minas Gerais, Brazil) in the 1940s and 1950s, with a special focus on school parties and sporting events. To approach this theme, important theoretical references were used, such as Da Matta (1997), Nóbrega (1952), Cândido (2007), Vaz (2007), Souza (2008), and Julia (2001). The sources used during the investigation belong to the Arquivo Público de Uberaba (Uberaba Public Archives), to the Superintendência Regional de Ensino de Uberaba (Uberaba Regional Office of Education), and to the Memorial Mário Palmério (Mário Palmério Memorial). This study begins with a reflection on culture and school practices, with an emphasis on civic and patriotic events, most notably school parties. After that, the form assumed by sports activities is examined and their relationship to civil responsibility and patriotism. It concludes with observation of the high level of correspondence between the government civic-patriotic ideal established at that time and that carried out in the environment of school practices in the Colégio Triângulo Mineiro.

Keywords : School institution; Civic responsibility; Patriotism.
