Summary: | The relation between Geography and Literature is bilateral: on the one hand, writers take space asreference to the conception and structuring of their works; on the other hand geographers understandterritorial dynamics through literary clues. This way, fictional writing, as a work tool, gains importancein the technical context as well as in the teaching plan. In the specific case of transatlantic migrations,basing analytically on the theoretical structuring board of transatlantic migration systems, it is intendedto reflect over some specific points of the geographic, social and economic paths of Arab emigrationto Brazil, in the beginning of the 20th century, having as base “A descoberta da América pelos Turcos”(The discovery of America by the Turks) [1994] by Jorge Amado. |
