Popis: This article aims to demonstrate some outcomes of the works of Prudente de Moraes, neto and his pseudonym Pedro Dantas related to the cultural policies of the Brazilian Estado Novo (1937-1945). In this sense, his essays of nationality, as well as his texts published in the Cultura Política review, at the same time that seek to affirm the Brazilian cultural formation, can also have its discontinuities evidenced in metaphors, as the one of throwing the “cards on the table”. When approaching these essays with the author’s poetry, this lecture emphasize a politicity in his texts, specially by the parodic recapture of the tradition and by the reflexion of its metaphors. In these gestures, the tropes of the poetry and the essays of Prudente could make inoperative the intitucionalized nationality and resist to the volatilities of the State’s cultural policies.
