Resumo: Published in 1902, Euclides da Cunha’s work Os sertões became a classic of reflection and interpretation of the Brazilian reality and led to the development of an extensive critical and analytical fortune. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to offer another possible way of reading his writings from the standpoint of the narrative feature called local colour. Although often associated with the issue of nationality, the local colour also has other implications and textual effects that are related to the imagery dimension of the narrative. From the criteria of nationality and textual visibility, I will seek to investigate not only the Euclides’ writings, but also part of his critical fortune throughout the twentieth century. I intend to propose, as a hypothesis, that the local colour is a distinguish part of the discursive field that comprises not only the Euclidean writings, but is also perceptible in the evaluations of its commentators. In turn, the presence of the local colour allows to suggest the importance of the imagery investment in the author’s prose and to identify a specific topos in the critical fortune of his work.

O objetivo desse artigo é sugerir, pois, uma chave de leitura adicional que consiste em refletir sobre a produção euclidiana a partir do recurso narrativo da cor local. Embora amiúde associada à questão da construção da nacionalidade, o mecanismo da cor local dispõe igualmente de outras implicações e efeitos textuais que dizem respeito à dimensão imagética da narrativa. A partir dos critérios da nacionalidade e da visibilidade textual, procura-se investigar não somente a produção de Euclides, mas também parte de sua fortuna crítica ao longo do século XX. Como hipótese, então, sugere-se que a cor local é parte constitutiva do campo discursivo que compreende não somente a escrita euclidiana, mas também é perceptível nas avaliações de seus comentadores. Por sua vez, a presença do critério da cor local permite sugerir a importância do investimento imagético na prosa do autor e identificar um topos específico na fortuna crítica relativa à produção euclidiana.UFRGS2018-07-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/anos90/article/view/7087310.22456/1983-201X.70873Anos 90; Vol. 25 No. 47 (2018); 279-304Anos 90; v. 25 n. 47 (2018); 279-3041983-201X0104-236Xreponame:Anos 90 (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGS-30porhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/anos90/article/view/70873/49025Copyright (c) 2018 Anos 90info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCardoso, Eduardo Wright2019-05-29T17:11:47Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/70873Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/anos90PUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/anos90/oaianos90@ufrgs.br||1983-201X0104-236Xopendoar:2019-05-29T17:11:47Anos 90 (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
