Description
Summary:If the unhappiness created by evaluation and selection is today increasingly expressed by French students, together with the publication of worrying data relating to the mental health of young people (degraded since the covid-19 pandemic), this article offers a historical perspective of the unhappiness of pupils in schools in order to understand the continuities, ruptures and issues, both through a certain reality of school life and in educational debates. These questions are thus studied from the 1830s (from the birth of a « State School » and the progress of schooling) to the 1970s-1980s (which correspond to the end of the massification of the secondary education). To do this, this work is based on the analysis of around ten literary or life stories (autobiographies, memories, etc.) compared to institutional ar-chival sources (in particular from the ministry of National education) relating to school life.
