Abstract

In "Missa do Galo", by Machado de Assis, an intertextual relationship with Os tres mosqueteiros, by Alexandre Dumas, and "Vieille chanson du jeune temps" (Les contemplations) by Victor Hugo is established.

The texto critically assimilates and inserts the french characteristics in new contextual, onomastic and imagenic relationships, in oposition to d´Artagnan or in consonance with the lyric and masculine voice of the Victor Hugo poem.

This presence goes to meet with what exposed in "Notice from the actual brazilian literature/Nationality instinct" (1873), where Machado de Assis asks himself about the possibility of national literary development, without the peculium legated from the foreign production.
