Sumario:In this article, I analyze the editorials of the major newspapers of Brazil (O Estado de São Paulo, Folha de São Paulo, Jornal do Brasil, O Globo) published on the anniversaries of the 1964’s Coup D’Etat. I try to understand the changes of the discursive representation of this event and the dictatorship that followed. From this perspective, I point out the revisions of the liberal memory of the military regime. That ideological current, in my point of view, defined the mainstream of a hegemonic memory of the historical period, based on “democratic resistance”.
