Literature, Culture, and Criticism

This article explores A. Candido's passage through Faculdade de Filosofia, Ciências e Letras de Assis, part of the Instituto Isolado de Ensino Superior do Governo do Estado de São Paulo (now Unesp), ocurred between 1958 and 1960. It points out to the importance and the meaning of this period for his intellectual and academic trajectory. Although this period was brief and not fully commented, his transference to a newly created college in São Paulo hinterland was important as: a) his professional passage from sociology to literature; b) his teaching platform which will become the basis for his Literary Theory and Comparative Literature course at the FFCL/USP; c) an stimulation for his essays of the mature phase, all of them concerned with the process of structural reduction.
