XIX Century, Paraense newspaper, Portuguese writer.Abstract
The Portuguese colonization in Brazil spread positively until the nineteenth century when the Portuguese settled here influencedthe creation of several newspapers, as occurred in the province of Grão-Pará, where the Portuguese immigrants founded newspapers with characteristics of their own, from which they became editors and redactors, democratizing the reading. Among these newspapers, O Liberal do Pará registers a curious fact that consists of thecorrespondence sent exclusively to this newspaper by the writer Lisbon Guiomar Torrezão (11/26/1844 - 10/22/1898), since the end of the 1870s. In this sense, the purpose of this article is to (re)present the author’s publications - as a documentary source - in order to ratify women’s contributions in the eighteenth-century newspapers, especially those addressed to the Paraense readers.
