Tarquínio De Souza Filho E O Ensino Profissional No Império:
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article analyzes the ideas of Tarquínio de Souza Filho in light of his intellectual influences and his spaces of sociability. We seek to demonstrate how authors of the stature of Celestin Hippeau and Antônio da Costa de Sousa de Macedo were fundamental for Tarquínio to think of a professional education project inspired by initiatives from other countries and that covered a wider audience. At the same time, we try to understand the importance that the Central Immigration Society, an institution of which the author was a member and director, had in thinking about an education that could serve as an attraction for foreign immigrants to come to the country. In the end, we argue that these references are indispensable to understand how Tarquínio could defend what he called “technical education”, which clashed with the dominant education until then, propaedeutic, elitist and averse to work.
