Epicos Brasileiros

Esta edição reðne duas das mais importantes obras da poesia épica brasileira: "O Uraguay", de José BasÃ-lio da Gama, e "Caramuru", de Frei José de Santa Rita Durão. "O Uraguay" narra eventos histÃ3ricos relacionados às guerras entre portugueses e indÃ-genas no sul do Brasil, destacando-se pela sua visão crÃ-tica da colonização e pela exaltação da natureza americana. "Caramuru", por sua vez, conta a histÃ3ria lendária de Diogo Álvares Correia, o Caramuru, e seu papel na formação da sociedade colonial brasileira. Ambas as obras representam marcos do arcadismo no Brasil e oferecem perspectivas ðnicas sobre a histÃ3ria e a identidade nacional.
