RESUMO

This study is focused in the interpretation of Brazil, in the period time of the XIX century, based on three aspects: the building of the nationalist matter, in Varnhagen; the acquisition of subjective language, in Joaquim Nabuco and the relationship between science and literature, in Euclides da cunha. The introduction, presents the conceptual nature about the more visible traces of the essay in the literature e and notion of national identity. In its first chapter, the narrative follow the roots of Brazils interpretation, especially in those non fictional texts like the letter of Pero Vaz Caminha and the journey reports during the colonial period. The second chapter describes the creation of a literary language after the process of political independence. It can be found in written productions such as poetry and novel, but mostly in texts like História Geral do Brasil, by Francisco Adolfo de Varnhagen. The uprise of this new subjectivity in the language concerns the matter of the fourth chapter that also brings the criticism about the essay O Abolicionismo, de Joaquim Nabuco. In the coda, there is a brief reconstitution of Brazils way of interpretation, until near 1900
