| Summary: | This article aims to revisit the 19th century discussions that are present in the work O Guarani (The Guarany, a Brazilian novel), written by José de Alencar, throughout the year 1857. Through a bibliographical research, it demonstrates the close relationship between the indigenous project of the Brazilian Historical and Geographical Institute (IHGB) and the “alencarian” indigenous archetypes. Based on historiographical observations by Guimarães (1988) and Moreira (2010), it is understood that the IHGB debates, under the auspices of the Second Reign, marked out three main topics: 1) the place of the indigenous in the national territory; 2) the legitimation of the Portuguese Empire and legacy; and 3) the issue of miscegenation. Su-pported by Maingueneau’s concept of “interdiscursivity” (2014), thus, here it is presented quotients from an interdiscursive study, whose guiding question is the influence of historiography in an indigenous novel. |
