Description: This is a multidisciplinary project in partnership with UMINHO, from 2019 to 2021. b) Project USP/AUCANI-UMINHO strategic partnership initiatives, Joint Research Support Project: Members: Marcello Moreira, Luis Maffei, Vagner Camilo (USP), Micaela Ramon (UMINHO), Sérgio Paulo Guimarães Sousa (UMINHO), Carlos Mendes de Sousa (UMINHO), Ana Carolina Alvarenga (USP, doctoral student), Maria Clara Crespo, Sergio Felisbino Junior and Luís Felipe Ferrari (USP-IC-FAPESP, GRA). Summary: It has already been said that it is not possible to do without the 16th century. From historians and literary critics to poets and artists, there was no shortage of reading, quoting and interpreting the 16th century authors, more from the point of view of an erudition that was always homologable, and less by revisiting archives, poetics, comments and old editions, looking for other visions of the past. Addressing literary historiography and criticism, the project unfolds through the analysis of multidisciplinary records of reception (literary, iconographic, musical, sociological), in romanticism, modernism and contemporary Portuguese, in Brazil and Portugal. Finally, it is completed by an investigation focused on the 16th century. It aims to investigate: 1- the broad 16th century, through the analysis of 16th century sources and criticism of their historical-literary production; 2- its production through historiographical, sociological and literary critical discourses since the 19th century; 3- its nineteenth-century, nineteenth-century and contemporary poetic and fictional reception in Brazil and Portugal. Through strategic partnership actions: 1- scientific cooperation in joint courses at PG/USP and PG/ILCH-UM, bringing together teachers linked to the project, and 2- holding the thematic event, "Rewriting the 16th century", at CEHUM/UMINHO in 2021.
