Abstract

The purpose of this article is to examine the religious and moral attitudes within the elementary school teaching community in Galicia during the period of autonomy. Teachers played a fundamental role not only in educating young people but also in their character formation. This aspect was particularly important to the state administration (both central and Galician), which required teachers to live according to specific religious, ethical, and moral principles. Galician educational circles were also actively engaged in discussions regarding the religious, ethical, and moral attitudes of elementary school teachers. These debates were conducted primarily in pedagogical journals. Galician educators also emphasized the necessity for teachers to exemplify model religious and moral conduct, given their crucial role in providing religious and moral education to schoolchildren.

Keywords:

Galicia, Galician autonomy, elementary schools in Galicia, elementary school teachers in Galicia, Austrian and Galician education legislation, Galician pedagogical thought during the period of autonomy
