The purpose of this article is to analyze some episodes of martyrdom narrated in the Ecclesiastical History of Eusébio de Caesaréia (265-339), better known as the father of the History of the Church for his most famous work, Ecclesiastical History. We believe that, through this study, we will have the opportunity to understand how Christianity positioned itself as an educational model that sought to restore the Roman imperial order on the verge of collapse.

In this text, we will reflect on the importance of image as a possible mental and social construction. We investigate the secular speech inimagistic representations of French monarchs Francis I (1494-1547) and Henry II (1519-1559). During this period, the society passed for social changes between the Middle Ages and Modernity, implying the construction of state idea as a social organizer. We understand that the images in addition to revealing the social relations were also a trainer vehicle. We believe in the importance of conducting research in History, Education and Art, in providing opportunities for understanding the formation of the social subject. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to expose some reflections regarding both scholastic and the teaching methodology that was developed in the University of Paris in XIII Century, emphasizing the questions 15 and 16 from Part I-II of Summa Theologiae, by Saint Thomas Aquinas. Based on a perspective that places man, society and education into a whole - a totality - and also having as basis texts written by contemporary authors who studied Medium Age and Thomasian thought, there was an attempt to approach the essential aspects of their formulations, thus contributing for studies covering the field of History of Education.
