Um saldo positivo: as elites femininas brasileiras e o modelo de cultura escolar católica de tradição francesa
(2009) BRITO, Angela Xavier de
This article - written from the point of view of the sociology of the education of feminine elites - stands simultaneously on the synchronic and the diachronic approaches of a catholic institution of French origin settled in Brazil at the end of the XIXth century - namely the school Notre Dame de Sion, at Rio de Janeiro and Petrópolis. In order to understand why they are deeply indebted towards their alma mater, I have made about twenty biographic interviews with the alumni of this institution. They point explicitly towards the quality of the education at Sion as the fundamental constituent of the debt which these pupils contract towards it. But it seems that this quality is inextricable linked to the disciplinary, religious and moral practices inherent to the educational model of the school. This feminine version of the catholic school culture submit the pupils to a stiff process of socialization matched by strongly gendered disciplinary practices and by the inculcation of a sense of guilt - which are the price to be paid for the identity of Sion's children these girls eventually assume.
