The general objective of the thesis is to analyze actions associated with the construction of memory related to the War of the Triple Alliance, in the period between its end, in 1870, and the end of World War II, in 1945. Addressing memories of a war is not limited to in heroes, impressive scenes of battles and military feats of all kinds, even if they integrate such memories, especially those valued by national governments in order to institute official celebrations. Wars also mean deaths, sadness and trauma. The conflict between the Triple Alliance (Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina) against Paraguay, brought more than victory to the allies. It has brought about, mainly in Brazil, demands and questions never before imagined that caused a real turnaround in imperial politics. We also thought about how this memory was built by analyzing parties, monuments, museums, biographies, among others. Understanding the way in which the Triple Alliance War was remembered and also forgotten, examining its actors, ways of commemoration, remembrance and erasure, provides clues about the very construction of national identity and the forms of political appropriation of memory by the imperial and republican governments.
