RESUMO

This work intents to evidence which places the theme "education" takes place on Bento de Espinosa s philosophical thought. Throughout a bibliographic-analytic research, a pedagogical reading of espinosian work happens, which does not conceives it as a source of fundaments that could be used as a pedagogical theory base, but as a ground to be known from the Pedagogy. This task demanded, previously, a comprehension on how espinosism was placed on history; the first chapter works on showing the historical-philosophical sources of Espinosa s thoughts, from his consideration on René Descartes (1586 - 1650). Characterizing Cartesian education philosophy - from the epistemological and metaphysical point of view - as one which bases itself on "fist person" (cogito ergo sum), we define the position of Espinosa s education-philosophical as the one which goes from the truth idea of God to a affirmation of the human though on the "third person", through the homo cogitate expression. After this initial trajectory, we take into account, on second chapter, the presence of the education on Espinosa s work. The following works are considered on this point: On the Improvement of the Understanding, Short Treatise, Principles of Cartesian Philosophy, A Theologico-Political Treatise, A Political Treatise and Compendium of the Grammar of the Hebrew Language. Showing how the education is presented, we accomplish, on third chapter, an exclusively education study on Ethics. The study concludes that education passes by all the works of this philosopher, going to its deepest and most specifying consideration on Ethics. We conclude, generality, that the education presented on Espinosa s thought revels itself, as a way for the creation of the free man, that is, the one who lives from his own reason conduction. Finally, this work presents three appendixes that include, respectively, considerations about Espinosa s educational lexicon, a map with the presence of the noun educatio and the verb educare on corpus espinosanum and a descriptive list of the woks found up to 2008, which the objective is to relate Espinosa s philosophy with education.
