A pedagogia social dos romances de amor dos “tempos da vovó”

Here's an English version of the abstract:

The Young Women Library Collection was a set of works of great success among the Brazilian middle class, which brought together the translation of French and English sentimental novels between 1930 and 1960. We focus on how this collection presented a certain conservative and authoritarian vision of society, as a fictional message that crystallizes ideologies and models of behaviors, reaching different social spheres from those of its production context.
