AZEVEDO, Crislane Barbosa  e  SANTOS, Rosa Milena. School groups and Body Schooling (Escolarização de Corpos) at the beginning of the 20th Century in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.2, pp.634-657. ISSN 1982-7806.  https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v15n2-2016-10.

In this article, we consider what we call the process of body schooling (escolarização de corpos) in the school culture of school groups of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, at the beginning of the 20th Century. Based on bibliographical and documental research, we focus specifically on the relationship between school groups, the intuitive method, and hygiene; attention to the body in the midst of general practices, such as manual tasks, recess, and the activity of writing; and, above all, the specific practice of physical exercises, such as Swiss gymnastics and calisthenics. The school groups were seeded with a new school culture based on pedagogical principles considered essential for fashioning a citizen of the republic at the beginning of the 20th Century.

Palavras-chave : School Group; Physical Exercises; Gymnastics; Calisthenics.
