ABSTRACT Francophilia has been present in Brazil since the late eighteenth century, and French-language periodicals imported from Paris as well as national newspapers and magazines published by emigrants in the following centuries were responsible for its dissemination. This article is devoted to some questions about the production, circulation and distribution of French and French-Brazilian newspapers and magazines in the cities of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo in the 19th and 20th centuries. The hypothesis is that this printed press performed the Francophone diffusion and was between the pioneers of insertion of Brazil in the logic of transnational media that appears with rise of modernity. To this end, in addition to get lists of French printed press imported and local published titles in two capitals, achieved in old catalogs of book sellers and public collections, as well as the distribution places which made them accessible to readers, were consulted French and Brazilian statistical and postal reports to search quantitative data of subsidies the analysis. Between results were found titles French predominance (result the French power culture in this period, particularly in Latin America) and the discovery of commercial deals favorable to French printed press, which bring a new element to explain its great influx to Brazil, indicating a new methodological perspective for the studies of the foreign press circulation history.
