Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisResearcher, Brazilian Literature, Modernism (1922-1945)
Mar. 2017 - Aug. 2022Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, BrasilMy PhD proposed the construction of a history of the Brazilian short story between 1930 and 1945, formally marked in literary studies by the permanence and development of the modern novel in Brazil. Contrary to the current literary history's emphasis on the period, I investigated a large sample of short story works, canonical or otherwise, demonstrating that they are compact interpretations of nation.
