Abstract
From the mid-1930s, with Raízes do Brasil , to the mid-1960s, with O extremo Oeste , Sérgio Buarque de Holanda undergoes a significant change in his understanding of Brazilian space. Initially, in a close dialogue with Gilberto Freyre, the author conceives the country drawing on the notion of the tropics, a fluid space where Portugal could be recreated through the bond with the ocean. In Monções and Caminhos e fronteiras , the historian develops a deliberately opposed vision, conceiving the country from the notion of frontier, a rough space where a foreigner's adaptability reaches its limit. In this phase, Jaime Cortesão and his thesis of Brazil-island became an invariable target of criticism.
从20世纪30年代中期的Raízes do Brasil到60年代中期的O extremo Oeste, ssamrgio Buarque de Holanda对巴西空间的理解发生了重大变化。最初,在与Gilberto Freyre的密切对话中,作者设想这个国家借鉴了热带的概念,这是一个流动的空间,葡萄牙可以通过与海洋的联系来重建。在《Monções》和《Caminhos e fronteiras》中,历史学家刻意发展出一种相反的观点,从边疆的概念来构想国家,这是一个外国人适应能力达到极限的粗糙空间。在这一阶段,Jaime cortes和他的巴西岛理论成为了一个不变的批评对象。
