Analysis of figuration created by Paschoal Lemme in his interdependence with other people and groups in the process of his militancy and intellectual production in favor of adult education. Based on Eliasian propositions, the exploration of documents suggests that for Lemme the creation of a democratic system of public education was subordinated to the change in the social conditions of the population. On the understanding that the qualification of the worker would improve his material situation and would favor his conditions of participation; in Lemme’s perspective, adult education was considered as one of the components capable of operating in the social transformations necessary for the democratization of education. Linked to communism, he worked for the bourgeois revolution against the limits of the possibilities imposed on the workers’ revolution. But the tensions and conflicts involved in the validation of ideas suggest that, in the course of the social process, Lemme’s identification with marxist ideology and his closeness to the communists contributed to interdict the penetration of his positions in broad social circuits.

Keywords : PASCHOAL LEMME; ADULT EDUCATION; FIGURATION; NORBERT ELIAS.
