title: [The Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem: presenting perspectives for its analysis].
abstract: This essay proposes a reflection on different perspectives for analyzing the Brazilian Journal of Nursing. The journal, which is considered an instrument for the diffusion of knowledge and ideology of the nursing field, has been the object of few studies. In this essay, the authors adopt as theoretical reference the signification triangle of Pierre Levy and aspects of the feminist theory. The authors believe the journal should be analyzed as an object that produces, in its relation with nursing professionals, elements that constitute a culture, knowledge and symbology of the Brazilian nursing.
