History of Colonial Brazil

of Pombal was faced with a lack of schools to accommodate students from the Jesuit Colleges closed.The publication on June 28 th of a document, in the same year, brought a total reform, extinguishing definitively all Jesuit schools an established the creation of royal free grammar lessons of Latin, Greek and Rhetoric.This same law imposed a royal centralization of this type of education with the creation of the post of Director General of Studies.This Pombal Reform of the education was conducted in two distinct phases, the first one started in 1759 until 1771 and focused primarily on solving the problem left by the closure of Jesuit Colleges.The second phase, which began in 1771 with the Royal Censorship Bureau, focused on the reform of primary education, of middle school (under study) and of University of Coimbra.The current study performs an analysis on the Minor Studies in the period corresponding to the first frame of the Atlas Project -Directory of Municipalities in Education and Culture in Portugal (1770-1801).
