Contribution

Some years ago we started an investigation about a Portuguese educator, Teresa de Saldanha, who lived in the 19th century and promoted more than forty schools at a time when the public educational system did not succeed in reaching most of the country. However, we found no references to her name either in the History of Portugal or of Education. To obtain information about her educational project we had to search every sort of document, referring the slightest thing about her schools, her pedagogic belief, her national and international influences. We found private letters, reports, photos, regulations, financial maps and official requirements in two interesting documental funds: a private and a public archive, the latter not yet studied or catalogued. This investigation has its nucleus in the interpretation of signs and led us to a different and unexpected world in which Schools were beginning to rise.
