This research aims to analyze how in cartoons designed by Aluísio Azevedo are presented caricatural techniques of scenic arts and elements from Carnival. As the corpus were chosen among several themes that the literary and cartoonist author approaches, four anticlerical images published in the anticlerical and satiric newspaper O Mequetrefe in the year 1877. These images were analysed according to their historical and social contexts as tools to and for contestation. A contestation that at the same time is as much serious as laughable, religious and satirical, aspects which have already allowed in that age the participation of the society to bring some traits that let assume the presence of comicality through the usage of theatrical resources such farce and burlesque, immediately understandable with the purpose to inform and contribute with reflections and changes seen in the posture of the reader audience of the newspaper. This form of analysis, among others, is just one of the study possibilities of this critical object active as entertainment and information. As theoretical background for the review and interpretation, we consulted some authors such as FLUSSER (2008) and his reflections about technical images; MUNIZ SODRÉ (2006) and the sensitive strategies present in the media; the communicative action theory by HABERMAS (1987); the construction of cultural images by MORIN (1984); MARTIN- BARBERO (2002) and the processes of cultural formation through the newspaper and BAKHTIN (2005, 2010), about the carnivalesque elements. In addiction to this we consulted researchers from theatre field, such as PRADO (1999), MEYER (2001), SOUZA (2002), RABETTI (2007) and GUINSBURG (2009). Therefore we summarized to demonstrate how this image assisted in the propagation of an event, according as we realize the idea in relation to the presence of comic is a facilitator quality to the reception of the cartoon. It also acts as an invitation previously accepted and effectively translatable by the reader, educating, informing and serving as a political critic object and still operating as a reflection to possible social changes
