Description
Summary:In Portugal, in the eighteenth century, along with works that explicitly offer educational programs targeted to the education of women, will emerge a different kind of texts, also pedagogical and didactic in nature, that, in addition they can also focus on teaching various areas of knowledge (not just one program in the strict sense), recommend and prescribe both behavioral norms and moral teachings. This fits the seam of literature known as social behavior. This study analyzed two works directed to the education of women, namely Thesouro de Meninas, ou Dialogos entre uma sabia aia e suas discípulas (1774), of Madame Leprince de Beaumont, and Thesouro de Meninas, ou Lições d’uma mãi a sua filha, à cerca dos bons costumes e da religião, autorizadas com admiraveis exemplos de virtude e de piedade (1852), of José Inácio Roquette, trying to highlight the publics, the areas of knowledge and insider (s) model (s) educational run.
