Descrição: From the first moments following Brazil's independence in 1822 to the present time, intellectuals of the country have been asking themselves what the nature of their nation is--no single topic reappears more consistently in Brazilian scholarship. What would be the equivalent of poltiical independence in the realm of art and society? Antonio Candido said beginning with the first organized collective impulses of poets of the second half of the 19th century, who incorporated local elements to their traditional lyric, and then considering the programmatically Romantic and nationalist movement between 1830 and 1870, a Brazilian literary self-consciousness emerged, when writers started to see themselves as essentially Brazilian. This article criticizes the problematic character of some of Candido's assertions and works to configure a history of Brazilian literary tradition within the larger social-historical process of nation building that was taking place in Brazil in the 19th century.
