Abstract

This article intends to understand the construction of the character Felix, by the novel Ressurreição (1971), written by Machado de Assis. For that, some analytical contributions of the anthropology are developed, which discuss about an individualism as ideology in the western societies. This way, reliving the ambiguities and tensions of the individualization in Brazil of the end of the XIX century, Felix is between the necessity of love and can not love, of insert himself in the new order (bourgeois) and to be imprisoned to the old regime, showing the difficulties of became an individual in the Brazilian society.
