Resumo
We propose with this dissertation an analysis of how ficcion of Veiga rebuilds the figuration of the
processo f modernization of Brazil in the second half of the twntieth century. We aim at identifying
and examing how the narrators of the short stories “A usina atrás do morro” (1959), “A estranha
máquina extraviada” (1967) and the novel A hora dos ruminantes (1966) observe and conceive
modernity: not as a material process, bu as na indiferente and misterious entity. We defend the
hypothesis that aberrant, in Veiga, is a mimetic elemento, which representsthe way populations of
villages and isolated cities in Brazil conceived modernity: sometimes as a sign of progress and
elimination of misery, sometimes as the destruction of old habbits and local traditions. To reach
these purposes, we propose na inicial discussion about the aberrant in Veiga, based on the studies
of Tzvetan Todorov (1992) and Gregório Foganholi Dantas (2002), followed by a problematization
of the relation between Veiga’s literature with regional questions, with the support of Antonio
Candido (1989). The nearness of Veiga, through indirect and fictional means, and Brazilian’s
reality of twentieth century is discussed through Antonio Candido (2000). The diferente figurations
of modernity which appear along Brazilian history, and that resound in the voices of the selected
narrators, are identified and discussed through the perspective of Caio Prado Júnior (2011),
Raimundo Faoro (1977) and Lúcio Flávio Rodrigues Almeida (2006).
