This work is an intersemiotic approach of the Machado de Assis literary work O Alienista, by Fabio Moon and Gabriel Bá. The thematic chosen was in virtue of tointerrelate Literature and Semiotic as a possibility to explore the diversity of meanings which comes from of the established relation among words and images. Thus, it was defined as goals: to investigate the process of intersemiotic translation of the short story O Alienista, from Machado de Assis to the comic book genre, as well as the intersemiotic translation of this short story seen as a metalinguistic process of the translator operation; and, consequently, analyses the process of invariance and the equivalence in the practice of intersemiotic translation of this genre to the comic book genre; and, finaly, study the semiotic approach which enable the comparative analysis of the intersemiotic translation process of this tale to the comic book genre.Suchendeavour was fundamented on the theoretical assumption by Plaza (2010); Peirce (2012); Pignatari (2004); Santaella (2013), (2010), (2008), (2004) and (2003); Eisner (2010), (2008); McCloud (2008), (2006) and (1995); Cagnin (1975), Cirne (1975), about the relation of the intersemiotic process between literary language and the comic books.In this way, the literary theoretical background was based in Benjamin (2012); Bosi (2003); Busatto (2007); Candido (2010), (2009), (2008) e (1977); Piglia(2004); Gotlib (2006); Eco (2011) e (2003). By virtue of intersemiotic relation diversity which may be established between verbal system and non-verbal system, the purpose conducted through this work was the analysis of these three aspects of the intersemiotic translation that in one joint action allowed to understand the translator practice as an aesthetic form.
