RESUMO

This thesis intends to investigate the literary project of Franklin Távora, that he called by Literatura do Norte. The most important objective is to show how folklore, memories and local colors of North are utilized to build national history and literature. In this way, we introduce the principal discussions about folklore and nationality, the fundamental ideas of Escola de Recife and how the author is envolved by 70th generation of XIXth century. Moreover, we examine the polemic with José de Alencar, in Cartas a Cincinato, and the creation methods developed by Távora in his criticism and literary project. At last, we analyse the five novels of Literatura do Norte: O Cabeleira, O Matuto, Lourenço, Um Casamento no arrabalde e O Sacrifício
