Disponível em: <http://repositorio.ufpa.br/jspui/handle/2011/9424>. Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/9424Dalcídio Jurandir was born in Ponta de Pedras, Pará State, Brazil. His ten-novel series called ―Ciclo do Extremo Norte‖ (Cycle of the Extreme North) is a literary journey in which he presents several sociocultural aspects of the lifestyle in the Marajó archipelago, in the city of Belém and in the Lower Amazon River. The novel Marajó is the object of this study (apparently apart from the life trajectory of Alfredo, a character who appears in the other nine novels of the Cycle). It takes place in the first decades of the twentieth century and presents various features of the Amazonian culture. The objective of this dissertation is to show Dalcídio Jurandir‘s work as a critical and ethical journalist committed to the spatial and temporal reality of the Marajó archipelago, his native land, through newspaper and magazine articles, and his position in the current panorama of the Brazilian Literature, as well as to analyze the novel Marajó under prism of ethics, and especially, of esthetics, in its language, its social approach and the use of various parallel stories as its elements of composition, based on the theories of scholars such as Alfredo Bosi, Afrânio Coutinho, Marli Furtado, Junito Brandão, Massaud Moisés, among others.Acesso AbertoLiteratura estéticaEscritores paraensesLiteratura paraenseLiteratura brasileira - História e críticaJurandir, Dalcídio, 1909-1979.
