The posthumous publication of Guimarães Rosa's Estas estórias in 1969 invites literary critics to rethink the possible permanence of regionalism in the second half of the twentieth century when it is known that this fictional genre was already exhausted in the 1940s. In fact, based on the concept of "super-regionalism" coined by Antonio Candido, as well as on the poetic work with the word, we intend to present characteristic aspects of Rosiana's fiction in three narratives from Estas estórias: "Bicho mau", "Retábulo de São Nunca" and "O dar das pedras brilhantes". The stories would be, therefore, crossed by a modus operandi resulting from the author's poetic principle, giving rise to the singularity of his regionalism.
