Infância, moral e ética em Erasmo e Comenius: uma leitura a partir da filosofia de Friedrich Nietzsche

Abstract

This article deals with the Christian moral and ethics from the perspective of the philosophy of Nietzsche (1844-1900). In this sense, it seeks to place the ascetic ideal within the Modern Pedagogy. Thus acknowledges the formation of historical typologies in the schooling process. Such types are aggregated to the figure of the infant, especially in the pedagogical work of Erasmus (1466-1536) and Comenius (1592-1670). So it tries to draw parallels between the religious reforms of the sixteenth century, conceptions of childhood from the period and between the formative views of these two thinkers. It also includes the concepts of noble and slave (Nietzsche) and uses them to interpret the ethical and moral content of the postulates that crystallized around the infant, i.e., beyond the historiographical rigor, this article seeks to spark a kind of dramatic reading of his characters.
