With the advent of the Republic and on the first decades of the twentieth century, education has taken more and more space on the agenda of concerns of the Brazilian State. The effort to teach literacy and educate the people, following the principles of the present nationalism in vogue, has taken even more precise definitions. In this context, the school takes one of the most important roles, and especially the apprentice ones, have the challenge to teach literacy and discipline the fortune disadvantages. From that point of view, this research whose title is Mente amore pro patria docere: the School of Apprentice Craftsmen at Paraíba and the formation of useful citizens to the nation, is constituted by a reflexion on the trajectory of one of these apprentice schools, which is located in the city of Parahyba (present João Pessoa), between 1909, when it was created, and 1942, when it did not exist anymore, after a whole process of remodelations promoved by the Federal Government. In this space we defend the thesis that the School of Appretices at Paraíba, whose creation aimed to professionalize the disadvantaged of the luck and to produce disciplined workers, was a place of learning knowledge and inculcation of behaviors where socially excluded young people had their bodies and minds educated by the logic of the rationality of the work and of construction of the Brazilian nationality. The thesis is based on the theory of the historic materialism (MARX, 1980; MARX; ENGELS, 1984; 2004; LUKÁCS, 2003; PINTO, 1969), and in the use of the category of totatlity, dialoguing, still with the idea about school culture when we consider the closing approach of the internal functioning and the everyday in the institution analysed here. In this perspective, we consider the suggestions of Goodson (1995), Julia (2001), Frago (1995; 2005) e Souza (2000; 2010) who assure that the internal processes at the school cannot be ignored. In the present analysis we think about the set of transformations which make the changes in the Brazilian education and, more particularly, in the School of Apprentice Craftsmen at Paraíba as a place where these changes took place even being marked by conflicts and tensions. In this way we have worked with all the available legislation about professional education in the period (creation of the apprentice schools, remodelations and their extinction) as well as the management reports. Articulately we analysed the collection of fotography of the school as a possible exercise in the direction of understanding the intentions of inculcating the ideas and discussing the publications of the lectures which were organized by the teachers in the years of 1925 and 1936.
