Resumo

The poetry of Pedro Kilkerry (1885-1917) is complex and unique, it is also complex to cir-cumscribe the Pedro Kilkerry’s archive in the Brazilian literary historiography. This article aims to appre-hend and reflect on the place occupied by the poet in the official archives of Brazilian literature. Based on Jacques Derrida’s (2001) notion of archiving, the archiving processes to which the poet’s work was submitted after his death are discussed. Seized by the desire, by the passion to recover the origin, one asks about the traits that distinguish the processes of unarchiving and archiving carried out in his work or even how to evaluate the role and impressions inscribed by the archons in the poet’s archive. When answering questions like these, the “archive fever” is questioned.
