SUMMARY:

This research was designed with the aim of offering a critical and analytical reading of the first speeches of academic writers published in the Revista da Academia Norte-rio-grandense de Letras, between the 1930s and 1950s, in order to reflect on how the process of initial construction of the literature produced in Rio Grande do Norte took place. The speeches in question bring important records of a time when there was still no literary tradition in the state, within the context of the formation of Brazilian literature (Candido, 2013). The set of texts analyzed becomes quite representative, as it brings relevant information for us to understand how the formation of the literary tradition took place in the North of Rio Grande do Norte. Based on the theoretical basis of Candido (2013), Calvino (2009) and Eliot (1989), the thesis will analyze the contributions of writers, members of the Academia Norte-rio-grandense de Letras, published in the ANRL Magazine, in order to understand how the cultural and literary debate took place in the mid-19th century, a period in which our literature was formed. Based on the discourses chosen for analysis, we seek to assemble a panel, demonstrating how authors influenced others, forming a tradition (Candido, 2013). We also bring reflections on cultural heritage, based on Walter Benjamin (1986) and archival memory (Derrida, 2001), reflecting on how the past-present dialogism works and the importance of memory, as an archive. The set of discourses analyzed characterizes the existence of an intellectual field, of great interest to regional culture, still unexplored and little known, expressed until now in small literary manifestations. We chose to study these documents in chronological order because we believe that this linearity would allow us to observe the authors' creative process, thus facilitating the understanding of the construction of the discourses. Another aspect, the thematic affinity, of the analysis of the texts is the proposition that reading them enables a better understanding of the history of literature, cultural memory and literature produced specifically in a given period in Rio Grande do Norte. We noted, from reading the discourses, a concern to open paths for the construction of a possible systematization of the literature produced in estate.
