The text, which was not entered in the contest, would later be published in \u003cem\u003eAlexandre e outros herói (Alexandre and Other Heroes\u003c\/em\u003e ).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e With the publication of \u003cem\u003eVidas secas\u003c\/em\u003e , Graciliano Ramos had completed a cycle. The research he had been developing had reached a point difficult to overcome. \u003cem\u003eVidas secas\u003c\/em\u003e would create a stalemate for the writer. Moving beyond that point seemed a nearly impossible undertaking. Perhaps it would be worth trying a change of course, starting over from scratch, setting aside what he had done up until that point. Opting for a field of experimentation that would perhaps allow him greater relaxation, he decided to experiment with literature for young people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eAddressing the fall of the Empire and the evolution of the so-called Old Republic, \u003cem\u003eA Short History of the Republic\u003c\/em\u003e is a kind of historical chronicle. The irreverent tone, emphasized in the first part, is very similar to that of the famous report by the mayor of Palmeira dos Índios, addressed to the state governor, which would enable publisher Augusto Frederico Schmidt to discover the writer Graciliano Ramos.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175104823548,"sku":"9788501114792","price":54.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/a1334b90eb93e5409226dc11350810b5.jpg?v=1781667462","url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/products\/pequena-historia-da-republica","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
