Abstract

The daily accounts of experience and percep҆on are essen҆al for the preserva҆on and perpetua҆on of a given society in its customs, culture, beliefs and tradi҆ons. Personal and collec҆ve memory is vital for this to happen. These factors are of social and spa҆al character , since man, being social, produces them in a certain space previously produced by his civiliza҆onal ac҆ons, and the rela҆ons that are 1 maintained so that the con҆nuity of the society happens are purely social. This ar҆cle deals with the rela҆onships that exist between the reports of Carlinhos, a character in the work of . Who lives in the ingenuity of his maternal grandfather in an era, beginning of the 20th century , where coronelismo ruled in the Northeast, with Geography . This work is the object of study of this ar҆cle, published in 1932 by José Lins do Rego. It seeks to work Geographical science in conjunc҆on with Literature, through interdisciplinarity . It is used to cover the discussion of Geography with Literature, authors like Roberto Lobato Corrêa, Diva Machado and Maria Almeida. The research seeks to compose a discourse between the two knowledge, establishing scien҆fically through the geographical concept of landscape, also dialoguing with sociological studies on the con҆nuity of a social behavior expressed by personal and collec҆ve memory . Briefly , space and place are addressed. With this, we try to show what is geographic in the work "Menino de Engenho", by José Lins do Rego.
