University of São Paulo: Alfredo Bosi Chair promotes two free mini-courses this week

This week, the Alfredo Bosi Chair of Basic Education at USP promotes two mini-courses. The first of them takes place this Tuesday, the 4th, at 7 pm, and will have as its theme Women of 1922: Before, Now and After . The other mini-course takes place on Thursday, the 6th, also at 7 pm, under the title The Centennial of Independence and its Repercussions on Public Education . Both events are free, with live broadcast through the chair’s channel on the Youtube platform . There is no need to register.

“ On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Week of Modern Art, we took the opportunity to resume debates around the female agency in social transformations around the 1920s″, highlight educators Ana Paula Magalhães and Marina Costin Fuser, who will teach this Tuesday’s mini-course fair. “ This is a movement that does not follow a linear trajectory, and has its deep roots in the actions of 19th century women, as well as implications for succeeding generations. Figures such as Anita, Tarsila, Antonieta, Georgina, among others, are women linked by the invisible threads of tradition and innovation, and crossed by a culture of creative resistance, which we seek to recover here.”

The Centennial of Independence and its Repercussions on Public Education will approach the celebrations of the centenary of independence in 1922 from two main axes: the context of the 1920s – including the international exhibition of 1922, the inquiry on education of 1926 and the centenary of the law of 1827 – and the Manifesto dos Pioneiros , the foundation of USP and the Constituent Assembly of 1934.
