The purpose of this dissertation is to explain the formation of the identity of Fluminense F.C. as a club marked by elitism, which is grounded on distinction and refinement. An attempt was made to analyze the history of this club during the earliest years of the soccer development in Rio de Janeiro city, and its relation with other clubs. Several peculiar aspects of its history that were essential for the construction of the image of the club are also discussed. As theoretical basis, this dissertation shows Bourdieu’s ideas about distinction and Hobsbawm & Ranger’s ideas about invention of traditions. These ideas are necessary in order to demonstrate how writers as Mario Filho and Paulo Coelho Netto were responsible for the construction of a series of symbolic values and traditions, which associated the 'Fluminense' club with a space of distinction and refinement that perpetuated historically.
