| Summary: | <p>This article introduces reflections on the urban and socio-cultural changes happened in the city of Rio de Janeiro, capital of the Brazilian First Republic. The research objects and sources were the plays <em>A Capital Federal</em> and <em>Guanabarina</em>, written by Arthur Azevedo. In the last decades of the 19th century the city was taken by a modernizing wave that included not only the public spaces, but also the population’s sociability and cultural expressions. The analyses introduced here are derived from the master’s research entitled <em>"The Arthur Azevedo’s Rio de Janeiro. A reading of the urban space in A Capital Federal and Guanabarina (1897-1906)”</em>, carried out under the supervision of professor Jaime de Almeida (ppghis-UnB/ Brazil) and funded by CAPES - Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior.</p>
