Abstract

Ramiro Guerra Sánchez, a representative figure of Cuban culture, historiography and education, was one of the educators whose imprint was developed during the first half of the 20th century who, from the perspective of bourgeois liberalism of positivist affiliation, developed a theory and practice education whose central axis is the promotion of a Cuban, democratic and progressive school during the Bourgeois Republic (1902-1958). Defender of the Cuban public school, his philosophy of education is part of the intangible heritage that represents Cuban progressive educational thought, which is based on the analysis of the categories Teacher, School and Education. The work reflects on the facts, processes and social and intellectual interactions that contributed to the determination of a vocation towards teaching from an early age as the basis of said philosophy of education. Which allows us to understand the formation of an ideal of the teacher, school and education as professional ideals, as well as the place that these ideals occupied in his philosophy of education from the perspective of his contemporaries. The bibliographic review carried out takes as its starting point the primary sources of information that reveal the educational theory and practice developed by Ramiro Guerra Sánchez.
