The writings of self appeared in a large number in XVIII Century and they stepped up in XIX Century. The exercise of writing and to register daily aspects, secrets or even to note impressions of ‘reality’ made letters, journals, biographies and autobiographies being ways to make ‘history’. Many novelists as well as in Portuguese and another languages, always mix the writings of self in their narratives as part of novel weaving. From this relationship, this paper analyses the presence of writings of self in Brazilian contemporary fiction Memorial do fim a morte de Machado de Assis, by Haroldo Maranhão, published in 1991. In this novel, there is a configuration of Machado de Assis’s last years of life whom is inserted in the Maranhão’s novel, closely with the elaboration of some parts of journals and letters that Machado exchanged with his contemporaries. In addition, there are parts and textual appropriation of own Bruxo do Cosme Velho. Arise, for these and another questions, that the Maranhão’s fiction do many pastiches of Machado’s work, and with this fact allows a new view to the fiction of one of the most important Brazilian novelists.
