Journal Title: Sisyphus – Journal of Education - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
[PT] Este artigo objetiva analisar, junto a manuais de civilidade, os discursos civilizatórios que procuram regrar aspectos da saúde física e moral ao longo da década de 1950, estabelecendo um breve contraponto com a perspectiva médica defendida já a partir da década de 1920, em Florianópolis/SC. O estudo centra-se, principalmente, em normativas sobre a preservação da saúde física e moral constantes de dois manuais de civilidade publicados na década de 1950 que foram utilizados em aulas do Curso Normal e que integram um acervo didático preservado pelo Laboratório de Patrimônio Cultural da UDESC. São eles: “Da Arte de Ser Dona de Casa”, de Marta de Betânia N.D.S. (1951) e “O Livro de Etiqueta: Um Guia Para a Vida Elegante”, de Amy Vanderbilt (1958).
