The Almanac of Women for the year 1899 builds a new story about the habitus of well-to-do women of the late nineteenth century. Through the adoption and adaptation of the almanac format, La Mujer para el año 1899 represents the time with the purpose of stimulating the emergence of modern readers in the year 1899. The novelty of this article lies in the analysis of a poorly addressed corpus, which is studied with the purpose of unveiling the strategies it deploys to modify the perceptions of women's roles, a step away of the twentieth century. The hypothesis indicates that with the use of a format which core is the representation of time, those responsible for this Almanac, use it as a pretext to differentiate the end of one era and the beginning of another, marked by the active role of women as reader and intellectual. The methodology of this work considers the articulation of Roger Chartier's approximations on the production of textual forms and their acquisition of meaning; on the provisions of sexual gender and the writing of women to Pierre Bourdieu, Adriana Valdés, Patrizia Violi, and Claudia Montero about the women's press. The conclusions indicate that the almanac was modernized assuming proper elements of the magazine, becoming an ideal vehicle to transfer its traditional functions, as a result and thanks to extensive reading, the perception of the advent of a new appropriation of time and gender-sex roles.
