Abstract

This article purports to analyze the role assumed by the writer Cassiano Ricardo in the face of the literary tendencies which took place in Brazil in 1925. Through an examination of the essays he published in the newspaper Correio Paulistano, we tried to infer the author’s poetic theory, and to comprehend the fundamental part that the reflections on the “word” had in it, considering, as complement, the presence of both the Modernist component (by means of the concept of “clownism”) and the Parnassian one (by means of Martins Fontes).
