While working on this book at a library in Tel Aviv University, a librarian asked me to sum up my research in one sentence and remarked that knowing how to do it was essential to all researchers. Giving her a definite answer was a challenging task then and it remains so now while summing up this book. Initially, it is a book about the Mandate period, but while writing the history of education, the late Ottoman period appears not only as background but as the essential foundations of the postwar reality. This was not confined to the educators that filled the ranks of Arab and Hebrew educational administration during the Mandate. The institutionalization of educational segregation and inability or reluctance to challenge it started before the first British soldier set foot in Palestine. This is a book about the British colonial project in Palestine and its grave repercussions in the field of education for its native population. The colonial Department advocated a policy of educational restraint, articulated in a history syllabus that sought to cleanse history itself from collective lessons, national ethos, and political agency. But the colonial angle tells only a partial story because this policy was met with a growing community of Palestinian educators and students who (naturally) found in the past a space in which they could ask questions about the present, and events or people that served as inspiration and possible models for the future....

The History of Education Quarterly is celebrating its sixtieth year of publication in 2020. During that time, it has published over 1,500 articles and extended reviews. An examination of these articles reveals several enduring themes that have shaped the field and that will likely continue to do so as HEQ moves into its seventh decade. Given this, the editors have asked scholars to envision that future. Using select articles from the past as starting points, Volume 60 features a series of forums in which historians of education consider future avenues of research related to designated themes.

The Difference

The encounter between the history of education and the emerging field of historical interest in emotions is a phenomenon of recent and fast development. Researchers must bear some specific dilemmas and challenges implied in attention to affective ties regarding the past of education, being the first to define critical concepts for the delimitation of the topic. Furthermore, this new path requires that theoretical and methodological issues be addressed. Among these issues are the difference in the development of educational historiographical research in countries or cultural regions. There are challenges for education historians interested in emotions and their efforts to overcome methodological chasms, as for example, the disparities between discourse and experience. Given the fact that the research on the history of emotions applied to education is still in its first steps, it is possible to outline some potential advances in the confluence of the historic-educational and the emotional fields.

Abstract The article, in a theoretical-historiographic perspective, discusses the current trend of studies on the history of education of the senses and sensibilities. It begins with the presentation of the theme "sensibilities" and its presence in different historiographical traditions, showing how this approach in the field of History is not new. Then, in its first part, it discusses the recent arrival of the theme in the debates of History of Education in Latin America. In the second part, it presents and situates a set of monographic studies developed by the Center for Studies on the Education of Senses and Sensibilities - Nupes, FAE/UFMG, in partnership with researchers from Brazil and other countries, discussing some of their basic assumptions. The text concludes by discussing the limits, risks, and scope of the history of education of the senses and sensibilities as a trend that balances between academic fad and the possibility of renovating the consecrated forms of investigating the past and the present of Latin American education.

Since man is a man, history has been responsible for showing the progress of life in society and, analyzing the foundations of education, one can understand the advances and setbacks in the segments that support it. One must remember the importance and meaning of education to realize it”s contribution to people in particular and to humanity in general. For women, education is a great example of building for citizenship. Female empowerment and its entire universe overlap with the history of education, with the infinite property through the consolidation of social struggles and female resistance to what was imposed by society. The march of women made the role of education multiply in the face of more varied realities, whether in the rural environment or in the urban environment, in the most different spaces. It is known that the motivation for the search for knowledge in the circumstances in which women lived in the past was decisive for being the provocateur of women's empowerment, because it is a right for all, in the journey of the whole social force, family, religion, politics, culture, and work. In what was proposed by the advent of the role in the life of women, it is perceived that the force linked to power, wanting to learn have become more accessible to women and this development throughout life marks the vicissitudes that education manifested in the life of each individual.

Why should educational researchers study the history of education? This article suggests that this research is of immediate relevance to current issues of education and may therefore serve a wide variety of purposes. The main argument is that history of education offers four vital contributions: a unique methodological expertise that in turn enables historians of education to provide educational research with vital explanations, comparisons, and the ability to analyse the use and abuse of history in contemporary educational policy and debate. In short, history of education is vital to educational research, not despite its historical orientation, but because of it. Consequently, this paper poses a challenge, both for the field of educational research to promote educational historical research, and for historians of education to explore the untapped potential of this sub-discipline.

Historical interpretation is subject to change, a process often described as revisionism. This chapter distinguishes between a basic form of revisionism that changes or erases the past with no respect for evidence and a “historical revisionism” that has developed over the past century to build on, revise, or challenge previous accounts of the past. Historical revisionism is discussed with reference to changing historiographical approaches. It has become central to research in the history of education, for example in the United States and Britain. A broad consensus has been established in the history of education to explore the relationship between education and social change, although this has itself led to fresh debates over the nature of this relationship. These general historiographical developments in the history of education have played themselves out in different nations and regions, albeit at their own pace and at different times.

Abstract In the past two decades, the museology of education in Spain has been one of the most attractive, productive avenues of educational historical research. With new focuses, education museums have come to be understood as essential resources for research and teaching in this area. A study of the relationship between the Museology of Education and History of Education offers a field of research which feeds into the study of Spain’s historical educational heritage. This article approaches the Museology of Education as the most promising research area for historiographers of education in Spain. From the very start, it sets out the main actions, activities and projects in museology taking place in the country, which demonstrate how historical educational science has taken ethnohistory in a new direction.

Resumo: Este artigo se interessa pela cultura escolar, mais especificamente pela produção e circulação de livros didáticos e paradidáticos. Ele se insere na área da História da Educação, assim também como no campo do Ensino de História. O objetivo deste artigo é estudar a representação do passado na produção imagética deste Atlas que foi escrito e comercializado no ano de 1971. Utilizamos o método iconográfico-iconológico proposto por Peter Burke para a análise de imagens, bem como os postulados de Circe Bittencourt e Kazumi Munakata sobre produção e circulação de materiais didáticos. Os resultados alcançados apontam que a representação visual de agentes históricos foi utilizada com a intenção de criar um cidadão brasileiro a partir de três baluartes: religião, pátria e família. Por outro lado, a ausência de determinados sujeitos históricos como negros, mulheres e indígenas revelou uma noção branca, masculina, europeia e católica da formação do Brasil contemporâneo.Palavras-chave: EMC, Livro didático, História, Brasil.Abstract: The theme of this research is interested in school culture, more specifically in the concern with the production and circulation of textbooks and accompanying materials. This theme is inserted in the History of Education, as well as in the field of History Teaching. The objective of this article aims to study the representation of the past in the imagery production in a Modern Atlas of MCE, which was written and marketed in 1971. As a research procedure, we used the iconographic-iconological method proposed by Peter Burke for image analysis, as well as Circe Bittencourt and Kazumi Munakata’s studies on the production and circulation of textbooks. The expected results indicate to us that the visual representation of historical agents was used with the intention of creating a Brazilian citizen from three bulwarks: religion, homeland, and family. On the other hand, the absence of certain historical subjects such as blacks, women and indigenous people revealed a white, European, male, and catholic notion of contemporary Brazil's formation.Keywords: MCE, Textbook, History, Brazil.
