Resumo:
In the state of Paraíba, in the 1920s, gender practices and discourses about the feminine were
constructed through the laws, education, the Church, as well as the press in the case of the
newspaper O Educador. Newspaper advertisements brought gaps with rules and guidelines to
women's education, remembering that we are not talking about just any newspaper, but O
Educator, which dealt with all the majority masculine intellectual production and reaffirmed
the machismo and misogyny that was built when the thought was basically: "[...] we need to
teach our daughters [...]" (O EDUCADOR, 02 fev. 1922, p. 01). Here we will enter the territory
of Parahyba do Norte, today called João Pessoa, capital of the state of Paraíba, we will discuss
the gender affirmations in this society, the cultural traces from what it legitimated within the
Press, precisely we will deal with a newspaper edited and written by educators and scholars of
the time. However, within this writing there are spaces for women's voices from that period,
which will flow other stories about themselves and for them, stories about political, intellectual,
and freedom desires, even if in a pondered way. The goal of this research is to problematize the
weaving, the cultural traces of a modern Brazilian society that dialogically builds spaces of
common customs of ruptures and continuities between men and women, but that the womb, the
north is the listening/reading of the historical narrative of these women in the newspaper O
Educador.
