Abstract

The first edition of the magazine Echo Miguelino appeared on July 11, 1874, 42 years after the first newspaper published in Rio Grande do Norte, O Natalense. After 148 years of publishing the first magazine produced in Rio Grande do Norte, magazine journalism remains active as one of the main media supports, despite the economic difficulties faced by publishers and editors. The eight-page notebook that constituted Echo Miguelino established the place determined for magazine journalism in the state and made possible the existence of more than 263 publications in these almost two and a half decades. A dobra, o grampo e a cola: percursos editoriais das revistas Preá; Nós, do RN…; Papangu; Revista Grande Ponto e Brouhaha: vozes na cultura potiguarrefers to a selection of five editorial objects, in print produced in Rio Grande do Norte, among the 263 inventoried magazines. The research presents the historical and editorial context of each one of them, describes the aspects of their publishing and promotion and analyzes the editorial structure, reflecting on the changes in the profile of their editions during their respective periods of circulation. In the final moment of the research, the fate of each of the five journals is observed as a product of the printed media, as a Corpus that has speeches and silences, gestures and words, actions and reactions, colors and parties, empathies and aversions, movements and inertias, lives and deaths, journeys and setbacks.
