Abstract

This work intends to think about the civilizing process, a concept by Norbert Elias, in confluence with the Brazilian educational process that was established during the period of the Empire and the First Republic. This time frame covers the biographies of the founders of the Court of Appeal of the State of Sergipe, founded in 1892. A time when the country was undergoing complete transformation, surrounded by educational precariousness and desires for development. This article exposes some relevant facts from history, an overview of an education offered to a few, by the elite who maintain the status quo. It is important to highlight the record of Law academies with a focus on the Recife School, where everyone graduated. The founding magistrates of the Court of Appeal were pioneers and subjected to the historical and social formatting of their time, under the atmosphere of a country in formation, a culture full of peculiarities, disparities and socioeconomic divisions. They were relevant in their time, fruits of the civilizing process brought about by education.
