Augusto dos Anjos e a educação do seu tempo
Abstract
Neste trabalho procura-se rastrear as concepções pedagógicas do poeta Augusto dos Anjos através do exame de sua prosa, de sua correspondência e das memórias de seus colegas e alunos. Formado na Faculdade de Direito do Recife, casado com a normalista Esther Fialho, que viria a seguir a carreira de professora após sua morte, professor do Liceu Paraibano, do Ginásio Nacional e da Escola Normal do Rio de Janeiro, o poeta exprime de diversas maneiras a pedagogia em voga no Brasil no início do século 20. Da análise, emerge uma filosofia da educação, própria do ensino bacharelesco daquele período histórico, onde o verbalismo assoma como característica mais pronunciada. A teoria do conhecimento subjacente a essa filosofia da educação manifesta-se claramente na semântica de seus poemas, recheada de vocábulos retirados da literatura científica. No entanto, tal como em sua poesia, as tensões provocadas pelo anseio de modernização da sociedade naquela fase de nossa história, também se fizeram presentes em suas concepções educacionais.

Abstract
This work tries to trace out the pedagogic conceptions of the celebrated poet Augusto dos Anjos through the analysis of his prose, correspondence and written memories of his friends and pupils. Graduated by the Faculdade de Direito do Recife, married with Esther Fialho, a student of teaching school that became a successful teacher after his death, lecturing at the Liceu Paraibano, Ginásio Nacional and Escola Normal do Rio de Janeiro, the poet expressed in many ways the prevailing pedagogy in the beginnings of Brazil's twentieth century. From the analysis arises a philosophy of education in conformity with the bookish teaching which was in vogue at that historical period of Brazilian education, where the verbalism was the most striking characteristic. The epistemology underlying this philosophy of education is clearly displayed in the semantics of his poetry, generally filled with scientific words. However, like happens with his poems, the tenseness of the modernity of his age also was present in his educational practice.
