This dissertation is based on the interaction between language - history and the role of Veja maganize in its section called Carta ao Leitor during the Brazilian social movement called Diretas Já . This research takes the language as a social praxis and questions how the linguistics choices express the political, historical and intelectual positions of that specific moment. Therefore, we start with the belief that the language constantly changes, as the humanity, according to the social changes. The Diretas Já movement that took place in 1984 was the biggest popular political movement in the Brazilian history. People went to the streets and claimed for democracy and political independence, saying: I want to vote for President . The desire for a political change overcame the limits of the Congress and led the society to live a battle of ideas. A new identity by the brazilian man started to constructe. In that period, the media joined the people, turned the facts into documents, making them more understandable to the brazilian people. It is in this historical context that the Portuguese Language spoken in Brazil is taken as the object of study in this analysis. We justify the choice of Linguistic Historiography as the theorical and methodological support of this research due to its interdisciplinary apparatus between Linguistics and History, in the process of interpretation of documents. Linguistic Historiography aims to embrace a large view of the language and mankind, dealing with them in their totality and not only with a sociological or antropological view, but inside a linguistic dimension and this fact allows us better understand mankind and its interaction within the social group. The analysis that has been made gave preference to resource of metalanguage and the principles proposed by Konrad Koerner, one of the pioneers of historical and historiographic studies of the language. We valorize the documental characteristic of Carta ao Leitor and reached the conclusion that the printed media has an important role in people s lives and, therefore, helps the reader reconstruct linguistically the reality
