GALDINO, Vannara da Silva.
Resumen:
The present work aims to analyze the representations of Sertão, sertanejo and
cangaço through the analysis of the literary work Carcará that I covered in his narrative, the period
of the cangaço cycle in northeastern Brazil. Throughout the work we discuss the interface of
relationship between History and Literature showing how from the emergence of the New History
Cultural literature has become a new source of research for many
historians. Thus, we present discussions about the representations that the literary work in
question puts us about the city of Cajazeiras –PB, about their public personalities,
about facts that are part of local historiography and about sociocultural elements
characteristic of the sertanejo people and the northeastern sertão, among them the phenomenon of cangaço.
