ARANTES, Adlene Silva. Education and boys of education and black girls and underprivileged in Institutions for Orphans (Pernambuco, XIX Century). Rev. Reflex [online]. 2015, vol.23, n.2, pp.269-294. ISSN 1982-9949.  https://doi.org/10.17058/rea.v23i2.3151.

This study is part of a broader research aimed to understand education to underprivileged children in institutions for orphans that worked in the Province of Pernambuco during the nineteenth century. We use legislation as sources of public instruction; crafts and reports from the Presidency of the Province and institutions for orphans. The research was guided by theoretical and methodological studies of the Social History of Childhood. The treatment of children in the institutions could vary by gender and race. The boys 'incorrigible' could be sent to the Navy and the Army as punishment. For girls "insubordinate" hospitals were places of destination. The prizes could be books and teaching objects, medals and cash values or prominent places in classes, according to the professor deemed necessary. Well behaved girls could still be teachers, working with families or to marry.

Keywords : History of Education; Pernambuco; Black Boys and Girls and Underprivileged; Intitutions for Orphans.
