SUMMARY:

This dissertation has as a theme the analysis of the short stories "Singular Ocorrência", "Noite de Almirante" e "Capítulo dos chapéus" written by Machado de Assis in their original periodical publication. The objective of the dissertation is to execute a research upon vestiges which may have fertilized the creation of women so dissident over the ones found on the official sources, based on the evidences found within the analysys. The women portrayed by Machado de Assis are represented by Marocas, Marina, Sofia, Ignacia e Genoveva, each one of them provided with their own singularity, yet still united by the disparities regarding the social norms expected from the 19th century women. His stories have the characteristic of presenting male narrations. The analysis started with a detailed survey of the “Singular Ocorrência” short story, where we examined the dynamic between the characters Marocas and Genoveva, accentuating the way in which the author develops their characteristics and relationships. Thereafter, we discuss the narrative focused on the hat in "Capítulo dos chapéus" and how it reveals the social and gender complexities of the period. And, at last, in the short story “Noite de Almirante”, Genoveva returns to the spotlight as a way to illustrate that the women depicted by Machado de Assis assumed the responsibility for respecting their choices and desires despite how they were seen. The vestiges presented by the analysis lead upon incidences inside the "A Estação e Gazeta de Notícias" periodicals, of tangible facts which connected themselves with the stories.
