Carolina Maria de Jesus was one of the first black writers in Brazil, considered one of the most relevant for national literature. She emerged in the editorial scene in 1960, with the publication of Quarto de Despejo: diário de uma favelada, which had great national and international repercussions, becoming a best seller with circulation in 40 countries and translated into 13 languages. Black, a paper collector and resident of the Canindé slum, Carolina was designated by the national press as “the slum dweller” or “favelada-writer”, which distanced her from the possibility of being interpreted as an author. This research proposes to problematize how the media interpreted the author in the year in which Quarto de Despejo was launched, in 1960. For this, we use a corpus built with clippings from newspaper headlines from this historical period, which will enable the analysis of the designations meaning Carolina and Quarto de Despejo, in view of the theoretical assumptions of Pecheut's Discourse Analysis. We intend to understand the gestures of interpretation for Carolina in the press, the ideological workings that determine the names and the stereotyping processes sought by them. In the discursive operation of newspaper headlines, there is the perpetration of historical silences of black women. The results indicate silencing and stereotyping processes that work in discourses about Carolina, which confirms the structural character of racism and the importance of anti-racist movements, especially regarding women. This work was carried out with the support of the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - Brazil (CAPES) - Financing Code 001.
