Biography of Machado de Assis He was born on June 21, 1839, in Morro do
Livramento, a marginalized region of Rio de
Janeiro. Poor, descendant of slaves, stutterer and

partnership was of great influence for Machado,
who has since continued to work for newspapers
in various ways, where he had the opportunity to
write chronicles, which began in the form of
reviews of the Senate debates and, later, on
customs of the time, which generated, over a 40-
year career, more than 600 texts on 19th century
carioca society.
