This article discusses similar aspects between the Portuguese work O crime do Padre Amaro by Eça de Queirós and the Brazilian work O Mulato by Aluísio de Azevedo, as both criticize bourgeois customs and the 19th century clergy, making a portrait of the societies customs of the two countries at that time and how these spaces were influenced and subjugated to what some pernicious and unscrupulous religious advocated for the benefit of their own pleasure. The first takes place in the city of Leiria, in Portugal; the second is in São Luís do Maranhão, northeast of Brazil. The two stories are part of the Realism and Naturalism movements, moments in which, through literature, the drawing of visceral man and society is made, showing their most animalistic aspect, according to the new philosophical, political and scientific theories that emerged in the 19th century.
