Abstract
The porn-erotic creation of Rio de Janeiro in the early twentieth century is the subject of this study, specifically, the emergence of the courtesan-chronicler in the Sans Dessous and the prostitute-educator in the Rio Nu porn-erotic journals filled with male gender markers. It inquires about the continuities and transformations brought about by these porn-erotic powers and the meanings of female authorship about readers in a male discursive order. Such events have potentiated displacements and continuities in gender performances, impacting the social-historical highlighted here. We seek to accompany the creation of a modern erotic sensibility and to verify its presence and effects in the constitution of carioca modernity.
