摘要:This paper aims to review the uses of human types in the conception of certain terms, for instance “national race”, which are enshrined into two literary types in the Brazilian national literature. They are conceived as racial human types that are highly considered by the social common sense. To achieve this goal, the followin are taken: Sertanejo by Euclides da Cunha and Jeca Tatu by Monteiro Lobato. By listing literary and biological terms in Os Sertões, Euclides’s contribution is notorious on the constitution of the image of the caipira during the first stage of Lobato’s work, especially in Urupês and Cidades Mortas . Both conceptions try to best portray the Brazilian man stereotype.
