This work’s goal is to analyze Nísia Floresta’s 1832 text Direitos das Mulheres e Injustiça dos Homens, product of her translation of Vidications of the Rights Of Woman, by Mary Woolstonecraft, as a way of promoting and claiming women rights in Brazil. To substantiate our research, we used cultural translation studies as theoretical referential, as well as current research on comparative law, aiming to draw a parallel between women rights history, Nísia Floresta’s cultural translation, and the idea that the law circulates as both cultural and social practices, using a bibliographic deductive methodology. Assuming that the translation practice is a dynamic process of constant movement that mobilizes knowledge, and is, therefore, incompatible with the fixed, stable, and universal idea of the literal translation(which was defended by the traditional theory for many years), we’ve reached the conclusion that the cultural translation accomplished by Nísia Floresta in the text that founded feminism in Brazil, despite being a literary and non-legal one, contributed decisively to the historical statement of women’s human rights, and represents what we can call law’s cultural voyage.
