Arquivos, rastros e história: a presença de Darcy Azambuja na revista Província de São Pedro

Abstract

Archives are an organized body of documents related to an institution, resulting from a professional activity, or are produced or received by this same institution, thus becoming preserved documents. When dwelling into archives and checking documents, the historian proposes to track the past, often facing silent regions that can take one to other historical narratives, some of which value the unsaid. Based on these assumptions, this paper analyses the trajectory of the writer and jurist Darcy Azambuja as contributor to the literary magazine Provincia de Sao Pedro , and debates his presence (or his absence) in A Historia da Literatura do Rio Grande do Sul (1956), by the historian Guilhermino Cesar. In this way, recovering some of the history of the Provincia de Sao Pedro Magazine , this paper addresses the participation of Azambuja not only in the magazine, but also in the literary history scene of Rio Grande do Sul.
