摘要：Eça de Queirós wanted to show in his texts the Portuguese society in the 19th century. In the novel Os Maias he portrayed Portuguese political, economic, artistic and family lives. His books present human kinds produced by Portugal society and among his characters we will find women portrayed aiming to make Portuguese aristocracy to feel unease. Woman is drawn following one of the main themes of the stories written by Queirós, forbidden love. This text aims to discuss the female figure in Os Maias in which, from a homonym novel by Eça de Queirós, Maria Adelaide Amaral and Luiz Fernando Carvalho (scriptwriter and director) try to recreate the image of women portrayed by Queirós in Brazilian television.
