          Abstract

          "Retratos do Brasil", "interpretação do Brasil", "pensamento brasileiro", "teoria do Brasil", todos esses termos remetem a uma unidade fundamental: um determinado país. Existe uma longa tradição que se dedica à sua compreensão, à sua decodificação; de fato, há inclusive um plêiade de autores que fazem parte deste panteão (Rocha Pita, Varnhagen, Sílvio Romero, Nina Rodrigues, Euclydes da Cunha, Sérgio Buarque de Holanda, Gilberto Freyre, Cai Prado Jr., Darcy Ribeiro, apenas para citar alguns deles). Todo debate sobre identidade nacional pressupõe algumas categorias de análise, sendo nação e cultura duas dentre as mais importantes. O presente artigo pretende abordar qual o sentido deste debate no mundo contemporâneo. Em que medida as transformações ocorridas nas últimas décadas incidem sobre a imagem que temos de nós mesmos, isto é, as representações simbólicas construídas em torno da tradição brasiliana são impactadas por tais eventos? Qual o seu legado intelectual?

          Translated abstract

          "Portraits of Brazil", "interpretation of Brazil"; "Brazilian social thought", "theories about Brazil" are all terms that refer to a fundamental unit, namely, the existence of a certain country. Indeed, there is a long intellectual tradition devoted to coming to terms with such a country, which include a myriad of authors who are considered to partake of this partheon of notorious interpreters (Rocha Pita, Varnhagen, Sílvio Romero, Nina Rodrigues, Euclydes da Cunha, Sérgio Buarque de Holanda, Gilberto Freyre, Cai Prado Jr., Darcy Ribeiro, just to name some of them). This scholarly debate about national identity rests on certain analytical categories, among which nation and culture stand out. The present article intends to inquire into the meaning of such a debate in the contemporary scene.To what extent the global transformations that occurred in recent times have an impact on the images that Brazilians project on themselves, that is, do the symbolic representations built around the Brazilian tradition are impacted by such events? What is their intellectual legacy?
