Literature, Culture, and Criticism

This essay intends to analyze the novel O dono do mundo of Plinio Salgado as a testimony of a specific social class, following the theoretical reference proposed by Lucien Goldmann. In this work, there can be found a revealing historiographical source for understanding the ideology present in the Brazilian Integralist Action. From then on, it has been possible to observe a conservative and authoritarian speech to the development of the Brazilian society. The genetic structuralism of Goldmann was used to verify the existence of artifices and ways that may prove whether the literary works of Plinio Salgado are considered novels, and therefore are expressions of bourgeoisie.
