Abstract

The text uses unpublished sources to present the proposal for an investigation of the network of Italian elementary schools promoted in the State of São Paulo and the circulation of school knowledge by Italian childhood. The objective is not only to begin the reconstruction of a map of Italian schools in the context of São Paulo and São Paulo, but also to clarify their nature (associative, private, subsidized, religious, etc.), the characteristics (articulation and composition of mixed classes by age or sex, number of registered and effective students, registration fees and livelihoods), organisation and educational and pedagogical content (day and night school, articulation in degrees, mnemonic or intuitive teaching, curriculum contents including history and geography or catechesis), characteristics, training and condition of teachers. In this perspective, the text aims to deepen the role played by the couple Gaetano Nesi and Gemma Manetti Nesi promoters of the school «Ai Nostri Monti» and editorial initiative to educate the children of Italians and speed up the learning of writing and reading.
