In the mid-nineteenth century, precisely between 1853 and 1854, the corresponding practice from the interior of the Pernambuco regions began to play a leading role in the main leaf of the province: the Diario de Pernambuco. So much so that, gradually, correspondents began to appear that even compromised with the newspaper to send periodically a retrospective and/or panorama about the (uns)successes of its region. Despite having undergone changes during the period studied, it can be said that the practice was of great importance in enjoying the attention of a considerable part of the literate political elites of the Pernambuco hinterland. The present research sought to identify and analyze the representations of delay and (in)civilization from the publications made about the Pernambuco counties, except for Recife, paying attention to the discourses-images contained in these correspondences, published between 1850 and 1870. the interior and the capital or, between the interior culture and the uses and customs of the capital, we take these correspondents as cultural mediators, since they ended up translating realities and worlds for both spaces, making or reinforcing representations now about the (rural) interior , sometimes about the urban (capital). We sought to describe and analyze the main representations of what were considered features or images of the civilized, modern world and / or of progress, or, on the contrary, the backwardness and uncivilization, as highlighted, for example, by the figure. from the matuto as a figure-man opposed to progress and representative of backwardness, thus clashing with the sense-representation constructed later by the coastal intellectuals.
