Abstract

This essay attempts to trace the history of the Caramuru myth, whereas the versions of Santa Rita Durão and others express various attitudes related to colonization and nationality. The important reevaluation of the myth in the nineteenth century was essential to the story. At that time, Romanticism and the liberal ideology rejected the notion of racial conciliation that lies at the heart of the legend of Caramuru
