Memória e Identidade em prosa e versos de Murilo Mendes

Resumo

It’s a study on Murilo Mendes’memories, mainly about the prose book A idade do serrote. It looks for cultural relations that can contribute to the surveying of literary and national identity conceptions. The familial clan of Minas Gerais extend itself onto the suggestion of a Hispanic ascendency and the cultural ambit overflows among some european languages. The catholic heterodoxy bends to humanism. Critical attitudes of 1922 Modernism are assumed, apart fom the point of view of Modern Art Week, in favour of an universalist nationalism.
