Abstract

In this article, we examine the work of Cecilia Meirelles in the ‘Página de Educação’, of the Diário de Notícias, of Rio de Janeiro, particularly the texts published in the ‘Commentario’ section, between June 12, 1930, when this newspaper was founded, and October 3, 1930, when the revolution commanded by Getúlio Vargas took place. During this period, Meirelles, in addition to divulging the principles of escolanovismo, addressing specific topics that could clarify it, dealt with problems that emerged with the Reform of Education of the Federal District realized by Fernando de Azevedo. In a way or another, she proved to be a combative author, who put herself in the front line for the renewal of education in Brazil, making daily comments on subjects that, in general, intertwined education and politics.
