Brazilianess that the critic built on its interpretation of the Luso-Brazilian letters of the eighteenth and nineteenth century. It is analyzed the
ideological and teleological nature of the discourse which legitimizes the history of Brazilian literature as a summary of trends of localism
(CANDIDO, 1981, p. 23) and universalism and search those lyrics for a national identity.
