Resumo: Located inside Rio de Janeiro's city limits, the Tijuca Forest is the product of a successful reforestation program applied to mountain slopes whose original vegetation had been destroyed by coffee cultivation at the beginning of the 19th century. From 1862 to 1887, Manoel Gomes Archer and Gastão de Escragnolle directed the planting of 95.000 trees representing dozens of different and mostly native species, with the purpose of re-establishing the flow of rivers which supplied drinking water to what was then the nation's capital. The Forest's survival under tremendous urban pressures has been in large part guaranteed by the rudimentary, original, and pioneering manner in which it was replanted.

De 1862 a 1887, Manoel Gomes Archer e Gastão de Escragnolle organizaram a plantação de 95 mil árvores de dezenas de espécies, a maior parte nativas, com o propósito de restabelecer o fluxo dos rios que forneciam água potável à capital. A sobrevivência da Floresta sob condições de grande pressão urbana foi em grande parte garantida pela maneira artesanal, original e pioneira como foi re-arborizada.Editora FGV1988-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/2167Revista Estudos Históricos; Vol. 1 No. 2 (1988): National Identity; 276-298Revista Estudos Históricos; v. 1 n. 2 (1988): Identidade Nacional; 276-2982178-14940103-2186reponame:Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro)instname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/2167/1306Drummond, José Augustoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2017-08-17T18:56:22Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/2167Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rehONGhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/oai||biblioteca.digital@fgv.br||eh@fgv.br2178-14940103-2186opendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:39.919489Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro) - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true
