    This dissertation deals with the internment of women, ocurred in Adauto Botelho Psychiatric hospital, situated in Cariacica, city that integrates the metropolitan region of Vitória in the state of Espírito Santo. These internments have an intriguing character, once they might have served to repress feminine behaviors considered anti-social by society or to simply silence the ones that annoyed the others. In that asylum we could find a high number of illiterate women, mostly black and mulatto, deposited there by the time the city of Vitória was consolidating as a urban area in development, in other terms, that institution was characterized as an auxiliary support for the segregation of a social group of women that were not included in the characteristics of the dominant society. Between the months of july 1954 and december 1956, 704 women with those characteristics were hospitalized. Based on Espírito Santo state government relatories and psychiatric doctors monographs written in the twentieth century, it was possible to rebuild part of Brazilian's psychiatric tought and it's punitive aspect over capixaba women. The present work observed the medical records of women separated from society, and found that this screening was not based only on a medical point of view, but also, from non-scientific segments of society such as the family and the police.
