Resumo: The article discusses the relationship between biographical writing and historiography, analyzing the notion of exemplarity underlying narrative of the lives of illustrious Brazilians, published in the Instituto Histórico e Geográfico Brasileiro journal, in nineteenth-century. In the literate context of imperial Brazil, it is possible to identify two significant modulations in the forms of biography, the first driven by a moralizing, laudatory and memorialistic sense and the second driven by ambition to provide heuristics access keys to the apprehension and representation frameworks of the past. The central argument is that in imperial Brazil, the contacts between biography and history were not established by a single route, but were marked by such modulations and subject to the general demands of the experience of time configurations.

No contexto letrado do Brasil imperial, é possível identificar duas modulações significativas nas formas da biografia, a primeira orientada por um sentido moralizante, encomiástico e memorialístico explícito e a segunda, dotada da ambição de fornecer chaves heurísticas de acesso à apreensão e representação dos quadros gerais do passado. O argumento central é o de que as aproximações entre biografia e história não se estabeleceram por uma única via, mas foram marcadas por tais modulações e submetidas às demandas gerais de configurações da experiência do tempo.UFRGS2015-01-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/anos90/article/view/4840810.22456/1983-201X.48408Anos 90; Vol. 22 No. 42 (2015): USOS PÚBLICOS E POLÍTICOS DA MEMÓRIA: CONSTRUÇÕES, CONFLITOS E REPRESENTAÇÕES.; 273-294Anos 90; v. 22 n. 42 (2015): USOS PÚBLICOS E POLÍTICOS DA MEMÓRIA: CONSTRUÇÕES, CONFLITOS E REPRESENTAÇÕES.; 273-2941983-201X0104-236Xreponame:Anos 90 (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGS-30porhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/anos90/article/view/48408/36150Oliveira, Maria da Glóriainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-01-12T17:04:16Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/48408Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/anos90PUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/anos90/oaianos90@ufrgs.br||1983-201X0104-236Xopendoar:2023-01-12T17:04:16Anos 90 (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
