Acervo documental do Colégio La Salle Carmo : uma proposta para a organização de um patrimônio documental

Abstract

This dissertation presents and discusses the results of a research project linked to the Research Line "Languages and Culture in History Teaching" of the Graduate Program in History - Professional Modality at the University of Caxias do Sul. The study aimed to organize the documents that make up the history of Colégio La Salle Carmo, from 1908 to 2018, including photos, meeting minutes, teaching plans, historical narratives, student records, and books. These and other sources were sorted, cleaned, and cataloged and will be allocated to a space that will serve as the foundation for the Colégio La Salle Carmo Archive. This research sought to document the memories that contributed to shaping the identity of Colégio La Salle Carmo. The research methodology was based on the principles of dialectical analysis of documentation and historiography. The fieldwork (archive organization) was grounded in archival science principles, with a particular focus on the empirical aspect of accumulation, fostering discussions on issues related to collections of textual and iconographic documents. The final product of this work consists of a proposal for a documentary arrangement. Through a narrative construction, this study aimed to propose an organization of the school's material heritage that could preserve the memories that shape its history. The archive space will be dynamic and interactive, allowing students themselves to explore and learn more about the past of the educational institution they are part of, thus contributing, both in the present and in the future, to the preservation of its narrative.
