Abstract
This article analyzes, from the approach and methodology of reception studies, the influence of the classical tradition in the first educational project for the Chilean Republic, entitled Reflexiones sobre el mejor sistema de educación que puede darse a la juventud de Chile-Reflections on the best system of education that can be given to the youth of Chile-(1811) by Juan Egaña. The analysis corresponds to the context of the independence and republican conformation of Chile at the beginning of the 19th century, processes that inspired the author in the search for a formative model for the Chilean citizens. Evoking the Hellenic paideia, the text reflects a political and axiological notion of education, oriented to the formation of virtuous citizens for the new republic.
