Abstract

This article examines The Brahmans (1866), a novel written by Francisco Luís Gomes (1829-69), and reflects on its ideological and formal composition. Because this novel is little known, it begins by presenting the author, the novel and the context of its publication. After that, the article comments on some texts about the novel. Finally, it offers some observations about the ambiguous structure of the novel and about why we should continue to study it today.
