RESUMO

Through this research we try to verify, comparatively, the image of Brazil put into circulation by the Spanish newspaper El País in the years of 1995 and 2005. These dates were considered, respectively, as a landmark for the beginning of the intensification of Spanish financial aports in Brazil and as the time when the economic presence of Spain was solidified, ranking this iberian country in the first position in Europe concerning financial aports in Brazil, and as the second biggest investor, in the general account. The application of the content analysis approach in a news sample, considered by Martin W. Bauer as satisfactory for this kind of research, as well as the observation of the main ideas presented in these news texts, allowed us to understand, among other things, the brazilian issues most frequently focussed by the Spanish newspaper. Throughout the study we were able to find the increasing interest of Spain towards the country, with the triplication of the number of news about Brazil, and the diversification of news coverage. Although there was a wider coverage on Brazil in 2005, and the economic news were greatly emphasized, the discourse about the country was permeated by stereotypes which related to mysticism, exoticism and sexuality. The most recurrent negative aspect on the news was the social economic inequality.
