The present work seeks to investigate the performance of female teachers for conquest of public space occupied by male figures, either as spectors and school principals or as members of literary associations and various societies who took on the task of directing the course of issues related to education. With Ceará from the last decades of the 19th century as a time frame, the investigation will take the trajectory of Francisca Clotilde, teacher, writer and journalist, always considering the conflictual dynamic that involved her performance in the literate scenario. Their attitude one time constituted reverberations of Catholic conservatism, another time they were modified, even when social roles tried to instill the opposite. These women took the current ideas that designated them the activities in the domestic space, in an attempt to convince them of their importance in the order and harmony of the social structure, and to claim their competence for the practise of functions until then occupied by men, such as those of character administrative, either in Public Instruction, in the Normal School or participation in the debates about the main issues that drove state of affairs at the time.
