SUMMARY:

This research proposal is to explore the arid backlands of the Caatinga. As a result of the reflections of the research project “The arid backlands: (re)readings of landscape, nature and written culture (1930 – 1970)”, I seek to expand its horizons through the literary source “O Romance da Pedra do Reino e O Príncipe do Sangue do Vai-e-Volta (1971)”, by Ariano Suassuna. To this end, it uses the debate between history and literature combined with the multiple concepts of landscape proposed by Jean-Marc Besse. Consequently, it follows the path of how fiction is able to create ways of seeing, in images, in presences, structures that become sensitive openings of thought for a realization in the scope of the aesthetic experience. Methodologically, it uses the “Research-Text” proposed by Ivan Jablonka, combined with a sensitive historical writing by Professor Durval Muniz de Albuquerque Júnior, with the intention of arriving at a historical-sensitive reasoning and, thus, establishing a reflection that renews the historiographical view of arid backlands in literature. Finally, it applies the philosophy of “Production of Presence” and the concept of “Stimmung”, proposed by Hans Urilch Gumbrecht, to think of new paths regarding the feeling and experience of backlands today based on literary works.
