In general, the thematic classifications of Cordel attend educational purposes, arranged in groups which can be thematic or structure based. During the research I found thematic classifications about: religion, banditry, love etc. In the work of Alves Sobrinho (2003), among the issues cited by him, I highlight the issue of depravity, defined as that which is obscene and immoral. That same theme is called sotadic by Salles (2003), that is, productions whose contents do not follow the rules of morals and morality. This type of Cordel reached its culmination in the 50s, in the Northeast of Brazil. Currently, in the state of Para, one of its representatives is the poet Antonio Juraci Siqueira. This study aims to analyze this type of Cordel and read them as a cultural text, which is able to say something more than dirtiness. Thus, it is important to mention the relationship between laughter and sexuality which arises from the sotadic theme. The discussion will present the theoretical assumptions based on Bergson (2007), Foucault (1977), Propp (1992), Idelette Muzart-Fonseca dos Santos (2006).
