Given world and built world in the work of Bernardo Élis

Abstract

This article was composed by means of literature review and qualitative and aims to relate the concepts of the given world and constructed world of the historian of religion Riolando Azzi, respectively, the rural universe portrayed by Bernardo Elis and his modernist regionalism. The universe depicted by the author of Goias is also related to the notion of the patriarchal family, and his work, specifically exemplified by the story of The Hoe has an analysis of literary critics listed in the text, as Antonio Candido, Afranio Coutinho and Modesto Gomes. The rural world is therefore linked to the given world, and the modernist movement, the built world.
