Abstract

From reading of The Maias, we intend to analyze images that have been created by the fictional discourse of Eça de Queirós, based on the barthesian concept that all “written clothing” is built in view of a signification. In this romance, clothes and its garment subscribe a critical discourse that reconsiders social, historical, and psychological relationships experienced by the reality of nineteenth-century.
