Resumo: A discussion on the criteria and decisive elements which were part of the Brazilian literary identity construction process during the nineteenth century is provided. The construction of Brazilian literary identity should be seen as a compliance process to directives given by the Portuguese and European Romanticism. By admitting the local color as a defining feature of their literature, Brazilian authors established an identity constructed out of an external differentiation, thereby giving up the formulation of a literature founded on an inner feeling of nationality. As proposed by Machado de Assis, the most important prerogatives of this inner sense of nationality would be grounded on psychology and on a slow construction of literary tradition.

Para isso, mostraremos, antes de tudo, que a construção da identidade literária brasileira deve ser vista como um processo de obediência às diretrizes dadas pelo Romantismo português, e europeuem geral. Aoadmitir a cor local como traço definidor de nossa literatura, os autores brasileiros estabeleceram uma identidade construída a partir de uma diferenciação externa; abrindo mão, por consequência, como propunha Machado de Assis, de uma literatura fundada a partir de um sentimento íntimo de nacionalidade, que teria como prerrogativas mais importantes a psicologia e a construção lenta de uma tradição literária.Universidade Estadual De Maringá2014-08-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://www.periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/ActaSciLangCult/article/view/2249210.4025/actascilangcult.v36i3.22492Acta Scientiarum.
