Abstract

In recent years the work of Gilberto Freyre (1900-1987) has been deeply reexamined, which has led researchers to explore this intellectual legacy from new angles. In order to contribute to this debate, in this article I will analyze the way in which Freyre incorporates South Brazil in his wider interpretation of the Brazilian culture, at the same time that he develops a dialogue with intellectuals from the South of Brazil. I understand that this double movement is part of Freyre's intellectual project of valorizing the province, articulating the idea of a region with that of national unity, with a Portuguese and Catholic cultural base.
