FONSECA, Thais Nívia de Lima e; ANGELO, Fabrício Vinhas Manini  and  OLIVEIRA, Hilton Cesar de. Procedural sources and non-school education in portuguese america: Minas Gerais in the 18th century. Rev. Bras. Hist. Educ [online]. 2022, vol.22, e194.  Epub Dec 08, 2021. ISSN 2238-0094.  https://doi.org/10.4025/rbhe.v22.2022.e194.

The article analyzes educational events that took place in eighteenth-century Portuguese America, in the Captaincy of Minas Gerais, inscribed in the pedagogical and civilizing practices of the State and the Church in two dimensions: the role of families in the construction of strategies for the education of children and young people, through its economic and cultural resources; pedagogical actions for the social conformity of the biracial population, focusing on civilizing and control agenda. The studies use sources that, although already well known in colonial historiography, are relatively recent in the documentary corpus of research on the history of education in Brazil in the 18th and 19th centuries: wills, post mortem inventories and ecclesiastical processes.

Keywords : history of education; historical sources; educational practices.
