This article analyzes the discourses and practices emerged from relationship between religious festivities, festivities and civic ceremonies and education, in early nineteenth century. The analysis approach is based on postulations of schooling, public space, theatricality and ritual. This framework allows to demonstrate that change of direction, lived especially after Independence, in festivities and ceremonies was useful for education; this allowed the formation of a republican educational space in accordance with schooling, while the patriotic and political purposes contributed to dismantle gradually, in the discourse and public ritual, the sharp separation that had prevailed between schools of first letters and subsequent levels.

Keywords : festivities; ceremonies; ritual; schooling; educational space.
