The formation of ideals inspired by heroic facts in campestral battles, during the landmarks of borders and the affirmation of national identities, evidenced the presence of a literary production engaged with that image. The poetry, in particular, contributed to the consolidation of certain social and politics structures associated with the interests of the dominant classes in each country during that period of occupation of the territory. This work aims at pointing some elements in the regionalist poetry which contributed so that the authoritarianism and the violence became intrinsic elements to the cultural formation of gauchos and gaúchos as a constituted society and also as individuals who reproduce such ideals. The confrontation among literary productions through a comparatist and an interdisciplinary approach (associated with the Frankfurt School's Critical Theory) is an attempt to keep the discussion in a constant tension, in the search of questioning the validity of certain concepts built along the history.
