“A posteridade é uma deusa volúvel”: as comemorações da Revolução Francesa e da Proclamação da República na imprensa carioca

Abstract

This dissertation will attempt to show how the media "uses" the celebrations to politics. Through the celebration of the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the French Revolution and the fiftieth anniversary of the Proclamation of the Republic will try to understand how the editors of the Morning Post and the Journal of the Brazil positioned themselves in relation to Liberalism and the Social Order. To do so, we must take into consideration that these topics were discussed in the context of the 1930s, not only in Brazil but also internationally.
