public opinion in newspaper columns, editorials, correspondence and announcements. In
this context, we analyze how the use and abuse of the word honor by journalists,
newspaper subscribers and contributors throughout the country revealed the conduct of
political and ecclesiastical authorities, as well as the discourse and practices that these
authorities used to legitimize their positions of power in Bahia and in the Empire. |
