Abstract

This article proposes some elements for the analysis of one of the main characters of Luis Fernando Verissimo: The Analyst of Bage. It focuses, fundamentally, on the questions implicated in the humor of the text, which makes reference to the dilemma of gaucho’s identity constitution. Using theoretical references from Literary Theory and specially Social Anthropology, I aim to develop some interpretative hypotheses, as well as to map the questions that surround this peculiar character of Brazilian literature.
