Resumo:
The article aims to observe memories on homosexuals in Folha do Norte newspaper at the beginning of the first two decades of the 20th century in Belém, Pará. The study takes into account both a historical and an exploratory perspective, as mention of homosexuality in media is not so new and discourses about the homosexual are inscribed in a network of memories of which media are a constitutive part, as they allow us to access such network, partially or not. James Green’s takes on homosexuality are our theoretical framework, which highlights Carnival as a typical time for news about the presence of homosexuals in the streets. We observed 57 issues of Folha do Norte in the February 1901 and 1911, within which we found four texts that dealt with the theme, becoming part of our corpus analysis. Folha’s utterances on the social settings present nature-like scenarios to address a presence of homosexual and homoerotic practices.
