Abstract
Fernando Pinheiro´s article on the mythical introduction of the printing press in Brazil by seventeenth century Dutch colonizers, published in 1859, constitutes a historical landmark in Brazilian journalism. This paper intends to rediscover the significance of this event, thus promoting debate on the periodization of journalism research.Copyright for articles published in this journal is retained by the authors, with first publication rights granted to the journal.
