Abstract

BARRETO, Raylane Andreza Dias Navarro  and  SILVA, Alberto Inácio da. About custom, the invented traditions and women's education in Brazil. Rev. Educ. Questão [online]. 2022, vol.60, n.65, e-30305.  Epub Feb 24, 2023. ISSN 1981-1802.  https://doi.org/10.21680/1981-1802.2022v60n65id30305.

This work aims to discuss the foundations and the way how the gender division based in the biological sex and the gender roles division was institutionalized in the Brazilian school. Methodologically based in documentary and bibliographic research this work highlighted distinct registers from laws and sparse decrees in the last 200 years, which can explain the invented traditions within the school and imposed to woman as elements of belonging into a specific gender. Theoretically, it assumes Hobsbawm (2018) binomial custom-tradition in order to unmask the temporalities of the mentioned tradition. Finally, this work highlights powerful elements for the invented traditions through and within school, that led to an education where women must be shaped and prepared under a male supremacy shield.

Keywords : History of education; Women's history; Laws; Traditions.
