Resumo
This article analyzes the “Diário de Brasilia”,
that integrates the Coleção Brasilia, focusing on
its ambition to reconstruct, in 1960, the Brazil-
ian past through a historiographical narrative.
In its organization there is a memory project,
explicitly directed towards the future. I identify
four of its functions, from which the organizers
of the “Diário” sought to crystallize the “cor-
rect interpretation” of the construction of the
new capital, assuming that that period was a
moment of mobilization of national forces and
expectations ready for action. Thus, the docu-
mentation anchored by an institutional inter-
est to conceive the legitimate history about the
construction process of the new Nation capital
inverts and corrupts the relationship between
experience and expectation, projecting the ex-
pectations of the present towards the past rather
than the future. This present is no longer the
privileged locus of articulation among histori-
cal periods, but rather an inflexion point where-
in the past and the future coincide in the same
political project.
