Our study it was turned, in special, toward the work carried through educative missionary and in the south part of the captainship of Pernambuco, over all from the construction of the two Franciscans convents in the alagoano territory, that had started to serve of base structural for the action of the missionaries. Carriers of a long religious and intellectual tradition, integrated to the colonial context, the Franciscans intended to evangelizer and to civilize the local population and of regions proximal, by means of its moral pedagogic, the end to make data profile of behavior, based on religious beliefs and civilized values.
