Resumo
A obra de Norbert Elias comporta numerosas análises e interpretações e os autores costumam analisá-la e aprofundá-la com base em pontos de referencia teóricos distintos. Assim, escolho um entre muitos caminhos possíveis, ou seja, o objetivo deste trabalho é analisar as características humanísticas e as concepções e bases filosóficas presentes no sistema de pensamento de Norbert Elias. Isto ocorreu por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica, com obras que relatam o modo de seu pensamento e, por fim, pelos interpretes que servem de auxilio, fonte de confronto de informações e ideias para compreender a teoria e o sistema de pensamento de Elias. O percurso que será seguido é o de discorrer sobre o tipo de humanismo presente nas obras de Elias. A seguir, encontrar as bases e concepções filosóficas tentando contrapor, comparar e legitimar, utilizando as leituras realizadas pelos interpretes com o intuito de decodificar o sistema do pensamento de Elias e, por conseguinte, buscar as características humanísticas presentes em suas obras. Em suma, este trabalho pretende mostrar que o pensamento do sociólogo alemão Norbert Elias possui características humanísticas que permeiam as suas obras e consequentemente o seu modo de pensar, podendo assim afirmar que ele é um humanista na concepção filosófica. Embora aderimos à concepção de que, no limite, a Filosofia da Educação é uma antropologia filosófica e nos remetamos ao humanismo, não tomamos essa definição e esse tema como um meio de identificar, de antemão, a concepção de Elias, ou de pré-concebê-la; ao contrário, tencionamos priorizar, como objeto, a própria obra do autor, produzida entre 1930 e 1990. Por meio da interpretação dos textos selecionados, reconstituiremos sua concepção humanística, identificando as suas fontes filosóficas.
Norbert Elias’s work allows various analyses and interpretations and authors are used to analyzing and exploring it based on distinct theoretical points of reference.Thus, I have chosen one among the many possible ways, that is, this research was carried out to analyze the humanistic features and the philosophical concepts and bases found in Norbert Elias’s thought system. That was accomplished by means of bibliographical research, with works which mention the mode of his thinking and, finally, by the interpreters who serve as aid, source of confrontation of information and ideas in order to understand Elias’s theory and thought system. The course to be followed is to run through the type of humanism found in Elias’s works. Afterwards, to find out the philosophical bases and concepts trying to oppose, compare, and justify the readings carried out by those interpreters in order to decode Elias’s thought system and, consequently, seek the humanistic features found in his works.In short, this research was carried out to show that the thought of the German sociologist Norbert Elias presents many humanistic features which permeate his works and, consequently, his way of thinking, and one could even confirm that he is a humanist in his philosophical conception. Although we agree with the idea that, within compass , Philosophy of Education is a philosophical anthropology and we refer to humanism, we neither take that definition and that subject as a means to previously identify Elias’s concepts, nor preconceive it; on the contrary, we intend to give priority, as subject, to the author’s own work, written from 1930 to 1990. By interpreting selected texts, we will re-establish his humanistic conception, identifying his philosophical sources.
