The objective of this research was to narrow down the situations of school violence reported in the novel The Athenaeum by Raul Pompéia, focusing on reflection on cases of bullying. Bullying has existed since the beginning of the school, but its study took place at the time when a large part of society began to attend it, accentuating in the school environment, the conflicts arising from the contradictory social structure. Despite the fact that research on bullying in Brazil began just over a century after the original publication of The Athenaeum, it is observed that this problem was already present in the Brazilian school context. Some forms of aggression described in this work were intentional, repetitive, triggered by the desire to destroy the other and, for no apparent reason, and as a rule, the targets were more fragile than the authors. The analysis of the hostilities described in The Athenaeum enables the elaboration of the past, giving voice to neglected, attenuated or forgotten suffering.
