Abstract

The book Memórias da Emilia, by Monteiro Lobato, first published in 1936, and richin philosophical questions, was a highlight among the other books from the series "O Sítio do Picapau Amarelo". Searching on works (books, theses, articles) from literature and Monteiro Lobato experts, comparing different editions of this book and considering it as part of a collection, it was possible to carry out this work. The following aspects were highlighted: the concern of the author with the book (considering it as an object for consumption), the similarities and differences in the memoirs genre;the dialogue with other artistic events, specifically with the cinema, and the multiplicity of voices and points of view.
