AfranioCoutinho (1959) discusses the philosophical background of Machado de Assis, pointing to the writer’s affiliation to Montaigne and Pascal. His reflection is utilized in this work to carry out some similarities between Michel de Montaigne’s Essays and the crônicas of Machado de Assis’ series “Bonsdias!” [“Good morning!”]. To that end, are thought as genres in which these writers develop their writing projects, the essay and the crônica. Montaigne is present in various ways in “Bonsdias!”, including the thematic confluence. As we could saw, the role of Montaigne in Machado’s formation is not restricted to spiritual attitude; there is a necessary step for literary creation.

In view of the literary and artistic value expressed in the fictional work of Darcy Ribeiro, we propose to rescue Darcy Ribeiro as a novelist. From this perspective, this work aims to present the critical reception of the anthropologist-novelist from the 70s, 80s and 90s to the present. With regard to Latin America, Haydée Ribeiro Coelho (2000) states that Darcy Ribeiro is one of the greatest intellectuals of the twentieth century. In this conjecture, we propose an analysis of artistic and literary creation in Maíra, with the intention of presenting the darcynian fictional universe and likewise establish this novel’s relations with the changes that affected the Brazilian society in the period of its publication. Thus, it is essential to resume the ideas addressed by the writer of Minas Gerais exposed in his novel with the intention of establishing a possible concatenation of his thought with the contemporary literary review.
