Abstract
In this article, we intend to understand certain literary and historical elements that permeate the work A Lágrima de Um Caeté (1849), by Nísia Floresta, and, for this purpose, we will dialogue with Candido (1985), Margutti (2019), Vasconcelos and Ramalho (2007), Duarte (1999) and Quijano (2005). Our main objective is to follow some paths that show how the book has both traces of a critical Indianism and elements that go back to epic texts for recovering the collective heroism, the historical and the wonderful plan, but at no time will we put the author's narrative lyricism in a prefixed and/or crystallized pattern, as this does not match the directions of the text that we will look at. Furthermore, we will also touch on the issue of decoloniality, as we will enter an environment of acculturation and destruction of indigenous culture and the text under study ends up becoming a poetry of resistance.
