Resumo: The prominent position attributed by Gramsci to the Enlightenment, among all the innovative cultural movements that contribute to the intellectual and moral improvement of people, constitutes the axis around which we seek in order to construct parallels between his ideas on education and culture and the legacy of Encyclopedists, either in the fi eld of creation of popular literary genres or in the proposition of a modern and democratic school. We focus on the investigation of Gramsci’s writings in order to study the echoes of the projects elaborated by the more progressive wing of the Enlightenment, which constitute of propositions on a universal and free public education in which the theoretical and secular study of natural and political sciences, as well as the introduction to artistic and philosophical culture, aims at the formation of autonomous men and citizens. A similar goal is identifi ed when Gramsci criticizes the changes implemented by the Italian school reform in the 1920s: disruptions between religious education and philosophy, humanist formation and technical capability, and the alteration of the alternative project for a unitary and fully secular school. In opposition to the legitimization of the fascist educational policy by the philosophy of Benedetto Croce, Gramsci develops the ideas initially proposed by the Enlightenment and recognizes the school as one of the spaces for emancipation from all the modern or traditional ways of reducing the intellect to the operative dimension, and also the dimension of dogmatic transmission of truths and unquestionable norms.

A abordagem aqui assumida investiga, no texto gramsciano, os ecos dos projetos elaborados pela ala mais progressista das Luzes para uma instrução pública universal e gratuita, na qual o estudo teórico e laico das ciências naturais e políticas, assim como a iniciação à cultura artística e fi losófi ca visam formar homens e cidadãos autônomos. Objetivo similar evidencia-se nas críticas do pensador sardo às rupturas causadas pela reforma da escola italiana nos anos 20 entre ensino religioso e filosofi a, entre formação humanista e habilitação técnica, em projeto alternativo de uma escola unitária e integralmente laica. Em oposição à legitimação da política educacional fascista pela fi losofi a de Benedetto Croce, Gramsci inscreve-se na senda aberta pelos iluministas, reconhecendo na escola um dos espaços para a emancipação de todos os homens das formas, modernas e tradicionais, de redução do intelecto à dimensão operativa e de transmissão dogmática de verdades e normas inquestionáveis.FCL-UNESP Laboratório Editorial2010-09-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/2980Estudos de Sociologia; v. 15 n. 29 (2010): Dossiê: Políticas públicas e as relações entre estado e sociedade1982-47181414-0144reponame:Estudos de Sociologiainstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPporhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/2980/2722Copyright (c) 2010 Estudos de Sociologiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPiozzi, Patrizia2021-05-12T13:46:55Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/2980Revistahttp://seer.fclar.unesp.br/estudosPUBhttp://seer.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/oaistraud.fclar@unesp.br||estudosdesociologia@fclar.unesp.br||maria.jardim@unesp.br1982-47181414-0144opendoar:2021-05-12T13:46:55Estudos de Sociologia - Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)false
