Diálogos de um simbolismo tropical

Symbolism is an artistic and literary movement that has received renewed interest in recent decades. In Brazil, from the open hostility that dominated criticism at the turn of the 19th to the 20th century, the importance and impact of the movement on national literature began to be reviewed. The objective of this article is to present the dialogue between Pernambuco letters from the beginning of the century and Symbolist aesthetics, through the study of the magazine Alma Latina, edited in Recife by young poets and writers who moved the cultural life of the city.
