SUMMARY:

The sociabilities of women who lived in Caicó and Acari, in the hinterland of Seridó, Rio grande do Norte state, and their descendants, with changes in time and places (17th, 18th and 19th centuries), consisted of a historical educational study of this doctoral dissertation, whose author is part of the Research Groups Historical-Educational Studies (CNPq/UFRN, acronym in Portuguese) and Women’s Education in the 19th and 20th Centuries (CNPq). Along with the writing of a doctoral dissertation, the research on the cultural, educational, and school sociabilities of those hinterland women allowed the definition of the object of study– collective sociabilities–, particularly in view of the interactions within the same generation and between generations. The objective of the doctoral dissertation is to reflect on the sociabilities inherent in the intersocial life of women born and living in the hinterland of Caicó and Acari and their descendants in the long duration of the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. The nature of these women’s sociabilities with changes in time and places led us to make use of the theorizations about sociability of historians Georges Duby, Mary Del Priore, Maurice Agulhon, and sociologist Émile Durkheim. The doctoral dissertation defended is that the women studied in the research cultivated common sociabilities and often related to the men of their family, social and school life. The documentary corpus for the writing of the doctoral dissertation consisted of reports from Dutch chroniclers, petitions to the Portuguese authorities, letters of dates and land grants, signatures of women in the records of inventories, permits and royal laws, speeches, and reports of the presidents of the province and directors of Public Instruction of Rio Grande do Norte state, Brazilian legislation, censuses, school books, manuscript diary and books of historiography and genealogy. The main conclusion refers to rural and urban collective life in the Seridó hinterland of Rio GrandedoNortestate– notably in Caicó and Acari– which, mainly in the 18th and 19th centuries, enabled some children to receive lessons at home under the responsibility of mothers, fathers and guardians. These lessons were succeeded by the few– later, in greater numbers– public First Letters classes, with a differentiated study program for girls and boys. However, they were intended for educational and school sociabilities, provided by teachers. In turn, for the history of education in Rio Grande do Norte state in the 18th and 19th centuries, mainly the school sociabilities of women living in the hinterland of Caicó and Acari and their descendants were already the result of the schooling society, even though social and educational opportunities were limited and unequal.
