FERREIRA, Lúcia Gracia. Histórias de vida de professoras rurais: apontamentos sobre questões históricas e políticas de formação. Revista da FAAEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2011, vol.20, n.36, pp.105-113. ISSN 0104-7043.

The study integrates research conducted in the (auto) biographical field studies. It is based upon the lives of rural teachers in the city of Itapetinga, state of Bahia (Brazil), who worked in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. Rural education came very late and is marked by its lack of contextualization concerning policies and daily practices as well as by the historical absence of policies related to training. The text aims to systematize and discuss stories told by teachers, to discuss matters pertaining to the rural context, class, and gender in historical perspective, emphasizing the feminization of teaching. We focus, shortly, upon theoretical aspects related to the (auto) biographical approach, through the use of narratives of five teachers. We work with them in a perspective of collaboration, allowing us to think about life stories, training and professional development, as marked by historical dimensions of the rural (female) teacher and about their influences and changes in their working context.
