Description
Summary:The Catholic Church, in the course of its history, intended and implemented projects that make feasible his maintenance in the power in all the social fields: political, economical, cultural and education. We will give emphasis to the education, which action is oriented for the formation of intellectual elite that was defending the ideals of this institution. In the end of the nineteenth century, with the break of the ecclesiastical patronage and the advent of new churches disputing the Brazilian territory, the Church starts to be concerned by a more conservative formation, attempting to stop the demonstrations of a popular Catholicism that were appearing in Brazil. Seminars and schools were created all over Brazil, with the catholic religion spreading goal, by means of the Brazilian education romanizing process. This work attempts to ally the themes about religion and education, dealing with the Catholic Church actions about the Creation of the Diocese in Crato and the Diocesan College in order to undertake the project that made feasible the maintenance of catholic power. The central objective is to analyze this process, aiming to understand the sociocultural role fulfilled by this educational institution in Crato city. Along his history, Crato was strongly orientated by the Catholic religion which imprints its presence since the Priest Ibiapina arrival and his charity institutions. The Catholic Church activity on Crato reflects the intellectuals’ formation that later defended this institution in several fronts, for instance the diocese host contest against Juazeiro’s Priest Cícero. In fact, the study of the religion and history of education in the Ceará will serve as theoretical outline to reaffirm the power of Catholic Institution.
