The legal basis for implementing repetitive (complementary) teaching in Galician folk schools in the years 1805-1918

Abstract

The aim of the article is to discuss the legal basis for conducting repetitive (complementary) education, which was organized in most types of Galician folk schools. This form of supplementary education was valid throughout Austria (including Galicia). It was a continuation of the weekly (daily) teaching in folk schools created for the plebeian people. The chronological range of work covers the years 1805-1918. The information base for the article is made up of legal acts concerning state education. In the article I am talking about the most important issues covered in various legislative acts: laws, regulations, etc. I point to the great activity of the state and educational authorities in the field of repetitive teaching. It was especially large during Galicia's autonomy. The article makes it possible to better assess the role of folk schools in the literacy of the plebeian society and the popularization of general and practical knowledge.
