SUMMARY:

As soon as the construction of a new capital in the Planalto Central began, an enormous interest in Brasília was awakened, which resulted in an abundant bibliographical production. In a political dispute — involving opposition and criticism, on the one hand, and a counterattack in order to legitimize the transfer of the capital, on the other —, several literary texts were published, which corroborate the changeist discourses, buto also reinforce the criticisms or give rise to new attacks against the ongoing change project. This dissertation takes these literary texts as a source of historical research in Brasilia, analyzing how they contributed to forge a social imaginary of the city, as well as examining the sensibilities revealed by them, which sometimes other historical documents miss, especially those related to the everyday life of the city under construction, which appears represented from different perspectives and narrative focuses.
