THE FORMATION OF THE GENERAL SYSTEM OF THE FRENCH-LANGUAGE EDUCATION IN QUEBEC IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY

Abstract

Purpose. The article analyzes the formation and development of the system of General education in Quebec in the XIX century, the socio-cultural and political context, which played a crucial role in the development of the system of Quebec Francophone education and determined its forms and content. Methodology of work. The study was carried out on the basis of a General scientific systematic approach, taking into account the principle of historicism. Results. The sociocultural and political context of Quebec in the nineteenth century is marked by two antinomies. The first antinomy is based on the linguistic confrontation between the Francophones and Anglo-phonons of Quebec. The basis of the second antinomy is religious; it is constructed by the opposition of the Catholic and Protestant churches. These sociocultural aspects played a crucial role in the development of the Francophone education system in Quebec, the main characteristic of which is the linguistic and religious separateness. The Catholic Church of Quebec during the XIX century created a coherent multi-level system of general francophone education, including primary, secondary and higher education. Practical implications. The results of the study can be used in scientific and educational activities in lecture courses on the history of the French language and the history of pedagogy, in special courses on various aspects of Francophonie.
