In historical bases, this work deals with elementary, professional and military formation of apprentice marines and novice artisans in Brazilian military navy, during the period between 1870 and 1910. E. P. Thompson s theorical references were used in order to understand the young boys shared experiences which resulted from their relations with Brazilian and foreign marines, naval officers and townsworkers. Michel Foucault s conceptions served to guide the investigation on apprentice marine schools, their distinguishing mark as a total institution and their discipline apparatus. The main historical sources in the studied period were the ministry of naval affairs written reports, the court dock yard trade books, the Brazilian Marine Magazine lot and the documents from the funds/collection named Identification Group of Inward Funds GIFI in Portuguese, in charge of Brazilian office of public records. The search aimed to understand this military institution s fenomena inside state politics during the period between the end of Paraguay war and mariners revolt in 1910, and also know which determining changes, incoherences and conflicts occurred in labor internal arrangement and produced an educational model for the coming «seamen». We intend to understand this state permanent institution s inner processes of enlistment and social individuals control. In order to know the apprentices formative experiences, we considered the idea that people s education happens in multiple dimensions of their lives, and not only through official study classes and programs, manuals or discipline rules repeated over and over. Some questions emerged in the analysis of young marines formation, such as use of time, rights field as arena of conflicts, duality on educational system, nourishment, resting, alcoholism, desertion, lodgment and revolts. We observed how the production of a rights consciousness was influenced by certain questions, like the impacts around the theme of profissionalization and career resulting from aspects as personal superiority, oldness and good manner. All of this discussion took place in young boys formative experiences inside that institution so called «sailormen nursery». At last, trying to comprehend those «from underneath» and using a thompsonian reference, we run through hierarchic hardness, military discipline and world conceptions based on individuals arrangement and apartheid according to race, social origin, physical disposition and illiteracy.
