Acesso em:.1982-5374https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/13155This article aims to discuss the conflict between the child character Alfredo and education and Vila de Cachoeira, represented at Chove nos Campos de Cachoeira, by Dalcídio Jurandir. The research is historical and its main source is Amazonian literature. The theoretical discussion relies on the studies of Roger Chartier and Walter Benjamin. We conclude that, due to the bias of literary perception and creative power, the critical look of the character Alfredo in relation to education and the place marks a total lack of identity with the reality of Vila de Cachoeira, as he does not see in the space a perspective of the future, justified by abandonment of public power, due to outdated teaching methods and his own social condition, facts that lead him to plan his escape in the certainty of constitute new identity elsewhere.Acesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Representação de educaçãoConflitos identitáriosExperiências literáriasLiteratura da AmazôniaEducation representationIdentity conflictsSchool experiencesAmazon literatureArtigo de Periódico10.18542/rmi.v13i21.9557
