Résumé:
The present work aims to analyze the female participation in the letters and pamphlets of Paraíba in the 19th century, based on the study of 19th century newspapers and pamphlets. In this work we seek to analyze the historiography of women based on their writing, highlighting the importance of historiography to understand the daily life and thus understand the space in which they were inserted. Based on this premise, we analyze women's behavior in the face of the patriarchal system and the relationships in which they were inserted, seeking to understand the mentality and the representations of the lives of women who fought to conquer autonomy through writing and the press. Here we use the pamphlets and letters from the newspapers O Governista Parahybano, O Tempo and A Marqueza do Norte a through the site "Jornais e Folhetins literários da Paraíba no século XIX". We used the theoretical support of Roger Chartier through the New Cultural History and the contributions of the historian Michelle Perrot through the history of women, to help us understand a little more about the historical context of the period. We intend here, through these writings and strategies used to find the female presence in the public space, to evidence the evidence of women's social practices and representations of women in the writing and public press in Imperial Paraíba.
