Raído, Dourados, v. 9, p. 31-41, jul./dez. 2015.  1984-4018http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/19659In this work we analyzed the engagement in the poetry by Vinicius de Moraes. The class guilt, the function of the intellectual/artist in an unfair society, the desire of solidarity with the poors, the reflection about the historical dilemmas, especially the disasters connected with World War II, are fundamental for understanding his artistic and intellectual trajectory and often seem eclipsed by the famous image of the bohemian writer. In this study, we developed a reading of two poems by the author: “Mensagem a Rubem Braga” and “O operário em construção”.porAcesso AbertoVinícius de MoraesEngajamentoEngajamentoPoesia brasileiraOperário em construçãoVinícius de MoraesBrazilian poetryEngagementArtigo
