THE FORGOTTEN IN THE
INDEPENDENCE PROCESS:
UA HISTORY TO BE MADE[1]
ABSTRACT
- This article proposes another approach to the history of the Independence of Brazil in addition to the greater characters known by historiography and makes it possible to bring up individuals so many times forgotten about in this process. However, such a proposal does not mean choosing a non-original character but only a name whose path is sought to be reconstructed, without its insertion in the broader context of the conjuncture that marked the separation of Brazil from Portugal. Making use of short life stories, it is possible to find those who also elaborated arguments that made possible reinterpretations of such a process. They also structured a discourse that made possible decipher the languages of that time and answer questions through practices and principles that, to a certain extent, translated the political cultures of that time.
KEYWORDS:
- Memory / Oblivion - Independence - Brazilian Empire - Biography - Political cultures
