Tácitas e marginais: Memórias das casas de estudante autônomas de porto alegre e as possibilidades para a história da educação

Abstract

University student housing as a locus of research is a relatively new theme in historiography, mostly due to narrow understandings that frequently reduce these places to their assistance character, rather than address them as sites of training and knowledge exchange. Based upon a Cultural History approach, this paper will analyze the origins and organization of three autonomous student houses in Porto Alegre/Brasil, arguing for the inclusion of this topic in the field of History of Education, discussing research resources and proposing some important questions for future studies.
