Corpo, pensamento educacional e práxis: a "teoria" e a "prática" da Educação Física nos albores da modernidade
Year: 2004
Type: article
Abstract: The aim of this work is to analyse historically how body is considered and educated in modernity. Considering the complex process of capitalism formation, this study aims to understand the contradictory ways of corporeal education regarding that historical moment. For that, in the first part, Montaigne, Rabelais and Locke's thoughts were observed, in order to verify how body renaissance occurs and the concerns associated to its education. In the second part of the study, as a conclusion, the article points out the historical concatenation between bourgeoisie educational "theory" and the "real practice" of that education offered to the rising working class. As such education took place at the same time and space, the purpose of this study is to discuss the simple approach which regards modernity univocally as the moment of the "body renaissance", verifying the existence of several contradictions that cannot be explained as a conscience limitation, but as historical parts which belong to a fast-developing process of social transformation
