Item Desafiando os padrões sexuais de normalidade do século XIX : o diário íntimo de José Vieira Couto de Magalhães (1880 - 1887)(2014-04) Araújo, Patrícia Simone deThis article aims at analyzing the intimate diary of José Vieira Couto de Magalhães, a XIX century politician and thinker. The diary under analysis was written between 1880 and 1887. The author’s intimate writing encompasses a multitude of issues, including his disregard for women, his fears, anguish, business, his personal and intimate relationships, concerns as to caring for the body, and, in particular – and of special interest for this article – a feverish sexuality which is expressed in dreams, revealing a strong homoerotic desire. Living in a period in which homosexuals were badly regarded by society, were considered “propagators of sin”, by the Church, and as carriers of “sexual instinct” diseases in medical discourse, José Vieira described his erotic dreams with partners of the same sex in a natural and spontaneous manner, without attributing any negative labelling to these dreams.
