RESUMO

This thesis deals with the history of the constitution of the Company of Jesus as the first Educational Order of the Catholic Church, with special emphasis on religious education. From the analysis of remote sources (15th-17th centuries) to recent ones (20th century), the author investigated the changes in the representations of sin and solidarity of the Company of Jesus throughout its history, mainly after the deliberations of the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965). It was observed that after the Second Vatican Council, sin ceased to be an attribute of the individual and became an attribute of the society, changing from personal to social. The latter is closely associated with solidarity. The differences between the concepts of individual and subject were discussed within a psychoanalytical framework in order to better understand sin and its representations, in accordance with the concept proposed by Roger Chartier, and the current challenges faced in religious education by the Company of Jesus in its quest for an education for solidarity. It was necessary to resort to several religious writings (from the Jesuits and other orders), as well as to lay texts. In its educational mission, the Company of Jesus aims not only to pass on scientific information to prepare the youth for the work force, but also to confer values that allow the students to reflect about themselves and the world surrounding them, with the intention of making them more just human beings. Thus, value education runs through the curriculum in the Company of Jesus schools, rather than there being a strictly religious content. Sin is now converted into social sin and is considered to be manifest in todays society; its remittal can be attained through the daily practice of solidarity. The Company of Jesus seeks to impart solidarity to its students, alumni, and the educational community, thus updating its representations of sin, in agreement with the deliberations of the Second Vatican Council.
