ResumoThe article discusses how the commitment to Brazilian cultural development, combined with a search for national identity through the Northern Literature movement, led Franklin Távora to base his work on scientific theory. The analysis of O Cabeleira unmasks the author's double intention: to rescue national traditions through the history of the first Pernambuco outlaw, and defend the thesis that education could prevent banditry in the sertão. In short, if on one hand the author proposes human and regional development according to positivist ideals, on the other hand he turns back to true values, to sertanejo (inlander) habits and traditions
