Newspaper was the main means through where literature was conducted in the second half of nineteenth century, reaching, as locomotive, diverse readers in different spaces. Great part of these individuals was highly educated and would follow avidly the literary production conveyed in pamphlets. Machadian short-stories are among these compositions. Even though specialized critics appreciated this type of work as an eclipsed form of other successful genres, the production has toured newspapers’ pages for almost half century and helped consecrate Machado de Assis’ name much before the edition of his first novel. In 1870, with more than thirty written short stories, the author began to gather these narratives in collectanea and publish them, reaching a significant amount of printing and sale to editors at expressive values, resulting in seven anthologies: Contos Fluminenses (1870), Histórias da Meia Noite (1873), Papéis Avulsos (1882), Histórias sem Data (1884), Várias Histórias (1896), Páginas Recolhidas (1899) and Relíquias da Casa Velha (1906). When these selections won the streets, public papers of Rio de Janeiro released disclosure notes, comments of readers, advertisements, and critics, what reveals great attention of reception. To analyze such writings is the main aim of this study. As well as comparing to the judgment built for decades upon the short stories that currently results in an estimable critical fortune. However, many times primary sources such as contracts, manuscripts, letters, and newspapers themselves where the short stories were originally edited have been underestimated. Considering these collections for organizing collectanea is also the aim of this thesis, once Machado, when selecting them, would concern about the representation he wanted to build on readers, as prefaces and letters to his editors well reveal. The reading of texts published in the Brazilian gazette through the launching of short-stories volumes might help framing the understanding Machado had about his readers as to conceive the reception’s judgment criteria of readers in relation to the author’s publishing.
