In the attempt to recover the history of these institutions we seldom have access to information about who were the readers and how they used this reading space. This is a condition shared by the Municipal Public Library of Campina Grande-PB, founded in 1938 and on which there are few records showing the different stages undergone by the institution over time. On its readers, we have only a few references from the 1950s, when they are to be mentioned in local newspapers texts, but just to have highlighted their absence in the library and their practices rejected. This research - which is a part of a line of studies called History of Reading (CHARTIER, 1996; 2002; 2003; 2012) and understands reading as a social practice - discussed the following questions: what is the history of the Municipal Public Library of Campina Grande-PB (BPMCG) and how this institution was inserted in the cultural context of the city, in three different times - the first years after its foundation, in the 1950s and today? Who are the readers who used the loan service between July / 2008 and May / 2011 and what are their reading practices and their forms of appropriation of the Library? Our overall goal was, therefore, to register the history of the Municipal Library of Campina Grande-PB, at these three mentioned times, and to describe reading stories and practices carried out by its readers in this space or because of it: what they read, how they read, why they read, and how often they read. Contrary to historically constructed speech about BPMCG, where by there are no readers using the institution, we confirmed our thesis that not only these readers exist, but they have their particular way of appropriating the institution and find in it an important support for building their particular reading history as well. The existence of these readers in the library is often denied and their practices are historically rejected, a condition which condemns them to an invisibility which, however, does not correspond to the actual appropriation of reading space by its regulars. / As bibliotecas, espaços criados para armazenar as obras produzidas, mas também para protegê-las e difundi-las, tiveram sempre um destino incerto, entre a construção e a destruição, e finalidades distintas – entre a guarda do livro como tesouro e a abertura para o público. Ao tentar recuperar a história de instituições dessa natureza, raramente temos acesso a informações sobre quem eram seus leitores e como se apropriaram desse espaço de leitura. Essa mesma condição se aplica à Biblioteca Pública Municipal de Campina Grande-PB, fundada em 1938 e sobre a qual há poucos registros que comprovem as diferentes etapas pelas quais passou essa instituição ao longo do tempo. Sobre os seus leitores, temos referências apenas a partir da década de 1950, quando estes passam a ser mencionados em textos de jornais locais, mas apenas para terem sua ausência na biblioteca destacada e suas práticas rejeitadas. A presente pesquisa – que se insere na linha de estudos denominada História da Leitura (CHARTIER, 1996; 2002; 2003; 2012) e entende leitura como prática social – discutiu as seguintes questões: qual a história da Biblioteca Pública Municipal de Campina Grande-PB (BPMCG) e de que forma essa instituição se inseriu no contexto cultural da cidade, em três diferentes momentos – nos primeiros anos após sua fundação, na década de 1950 e nos dias atuais? Quem são os leitores que utilizaram o serviço de empréstimo entre julho/2008 e maio/2011, quais suas práticas de leitura e formas de apropriação da Biblioteca? O nosso objetivo geral foi, portanto, registrar a história da Biblioteca Municipal de Campina Grande-PB, em três momentos distintos, bem como descrever as histórias de leitura e as práticas realizadas pelos seus leitores nesse espaço ou em função dele: o que leem, como leem, por que leem, com que frequência etc. Contrariamente ao discurso historicamente construído a respeito da BPMCG, segundo o qual não há leitores utilizando a instituição, confirmamos nossa tese de que não apenas esses leitores existem, como têm sua forma particular de se apropriar da instituição e encontram nela um importante apoio para a construção da sua história particular de leitura. A existência desses leitores na biblioteca é, por vezes, negada e suas práticas são historicamente rejeitadas, condição esta que os condena a uma invisibilidade que, no entanto, não corresponde à apropriação efetiva desse espaço de leitura por parte de seus frequentadores.

The proposal of this study is to investigate the representations of practical of reading of normalistas of the Institute of Education Rui Barbosa IERB, in the decades of 60 and 70 of century XX. The theoretician-metodológicos associates itself to it estimated of History of the Feminine Education and of Cultural History under the perspective of History of the Reading. The used principal sources had been depositions of the formerones of the investigated period, the note passbooks of professors of Literature and Portuguese Language of the decades of 60 and 70 of century XX, beyond fotonovelas and clandestine romances read for the normalistas, in order to know and to understand the appropriations of such practical in the process of formation of these readers, considering itself that the reading experiences in the acquisition of habitus, as well as they give indications of the behavior, of the values and of the acquired experiences. / A proposta deste estudo é investigar as representações das práticas de leitura de normalistas do Instituto de Educação Rui Barbosa IERB, nas décadas de 60 e 70 do século XX. Vincula-se aos pressupostos teórico-metodológicos da História da Educação Feminina e da História Cultural, sob a perspectiva da História da Leitura. As fontes principais utilizadas foram depoimentos das ex-normalistas do período investigado, as cadernetas de notas de professores de Literatura e Língua Portuguesa das décadas de 60 e 70 do século XX, além de fotonovelas e romances clandestinos lidos pelas normalistas, a fim de conhecer e compreender as apropriações de tais práticas no processo de formação dessas leitoras, considerando-se que as experiências de leitura são importantes na aquisição de habitus, bem como dão indícios do comportamento, dos valores e das experiências adquiridas.

Aiming to form feminine models of moral behavior, this brotherhood was place of disciplines, norm and social distinction. The study examines practical of reading of the associates Pious Union, articulating dimensions: devotional, exemplary, informative, educational, entertainment and moralizing. Such practices are centrally prescribed in Catholic journalism, classifying and distinguishing between the good and the bad readings. The language of cinema is also broached in the study. The Library of the Pious Union participates of this research, forming a documentary corpus that includes pious and exemplary books and novels. The research still considers the performance of the Daughters of Mary in the educational field as teachers and as catechists in the Catholic proselytism.

The art of reading and its application to knowledge acquisition and innovation by elites have been largely neglected by historians of print culture and reading in late imperial China (1368-1911). Unlike most studies, which are concerned more with the implied reader and individual reading experience, the present study assumes that the actual reader and the social, cultural and epistemic dimensions of reading practices are the central issues of a history of reading in China. That is, while the art of reading was internalized by the individual, his learning and application of it had social, cultural and epistemic features. At a time when secular reading practices in Renaissance England were informed by Erasmian principles, Ming literati, regardless of their different philosophical stances, were being trained in an art of reading proposed by Zhu Xi (1130-1200), whose Neo-Confucian philosophy had been esteemed as orthodox since the fourteenth century. Transformations and challenges in interpreting and applying his art did not hinder its general reception among elite readers. Its common employment determined the practitioner’s epistemic frame and manner of knowledge innovation. My dissertation consists of five chapters bracketed with an introduction and conclusion. Chapter One discusses Zhu’s theory of reading and the implied pattern of acquiring and innovating knowledge, based on a careful reading of his writings and conversations. Chapter Two describes the transmission of Zhu’s theory from the thirteenth to the seventeenth centuries. During its transmission, Zhu’s art was reedited, rephrased, and even readapted by both government agencies and individual authors with different intentions and agendas. Chapter Three focuses on the reception of Zhu’s theory of reading by 1500 and argues that the moral end of reading eventually triumphed over the intellectual one in early Ming Confucian philosophy. Chapter Four explores the affinity of Ming philosophers of mind with Zhu’s theory in their reading concepts and practices from 1500 to the mid-seventeenth century. Despite their attempts to separate themselves intellectually from the Song tradition, Ming philosophers of mind followed Zhu’s rules for reading in their intellectual practices. Chapter Five outlines the reading habits and knowledge landscape based on a statistical survey of extant Ming imprints. Despite some deviations, the Ming reading habits and knowledge framework largely accorded with Zhu’s theory and its Ming adaptations. The continuity of reading habits from Zhu’s time to the seventeenth century, I conclude, inspires us to rethink the Ming apostasy from the Song tradition. The particularity of scholarly knowledge acquisition and innovation in Ming-Qing China by the eighteenth century was not invented by Ming-Qing scholars but anticipated by Zhu through his theory of reading. With respect to late imperial China, the history of reading, together with the history of knowledge, is yet to be fruitfully explored. With this dissertation, I hope to be able to make a contribution to the understanding of the East Asian orthodox habit of reading as represented by Zhu’s admirers. By placing my investigation in the context of the history of knowledge, I also hope to contribute to the understanding of the relationship of reading to the way that knowledge evolved in traditional China. Intellectual historians tended to consider the Ming Confucian tradition as having broken off from the Cheng-Zhu tradition, but at least in reading habits and practices Ming elite readers perpetuated Zhu’s theory of reading and the knowledge framework it implied.

Il libro scolastico, nella sua duplice fisionomia di supporto didattico e di prodotto editoriale e sociale, costituisce una preziosa fonte per la ricostruzione della storia pedagogica e didattica, culturale e politica dalla seconda metà del Settecento sino al primo ventennio del Novecento. Sulla base di questa premessa la tesi si propone di evidenziare la valenza educativa e didattica della letteratura scolastica per l’infanzia e il ruolo ricoperto dalla scuola nella formazione dei fanciulli italiani tramite l’analisi quantitativa e qualitativa dei principali libri di lettura editi in Lombardia tra Otto e Novecento. Dopo una panoramica generale sulla produzione editoriale scolastica della realtà italiana, la ricerca fa emergere i contenuti, l’apparato iconografico e la forma linguistica di 65 libri di lettura, adottati a livello nazionale nelle scuole elementari e pubblicati nei decenni postunitari (1871-1923) da case editrici lombarde di notevole rilievo, quali Agnelli, Risveglio Educativo, Trevisini e Vallardi. / The textbook, in its dual aspect of educational support and publishing and social product, is a precious source to reconstruct educational, teaching, cultural and political history from the second half of the eighteenth century to the first decades of the twentieth century. This thesis aims to underline the educational and teaching value of school literature and the role played by school in the education of Italian children through a quantitative and a qualitative analysis of the main reading textbooks published in Lombardy between the nineteenth and the twentyth centuries. After a general overview of the editorial school production of the Italian situation, the research focus on the contents, the iconography and linguistic form of 65 reading textbooks, adopted nationally in the elementary schools and published in the decades after the unification (1871-1923) by important Lombard publishers, such as Agnelli, Risveglio Educativo, Trevisini and Vallardi.
