Este artigo focaliza a complexa aliança entre a história e a ficção em Os sertões a partir de novas teorias sobre a textualidade da história e de novas metodologias de abordagem do texto literário, como o ‘novo historicismo’. Após uma sinopse dessas teorias e metodologias, examina os processos de construção da narrativa de Os sertões, demonstrando como o texto é marcado pela interpenetração do sistema que informa o cientista com o que rege o artista. À medida que o arcabouço intelectual e científico importado da Europa se mostra insuficiente para registrar a realidade brasileira, o texto euclidiano começa a deslizar entre a história e a ficção. A conclusão: apenas interstícios entre história e ficção Euclides consegue localizar aquela verdade que, desde a ‘Nota preliminar’, afirmava ser seu objetivo principal.The complex alliance between history and fiction found in Os sertões is examined from the perspective of new theories on the textuality of history and new methodologies in the study of literary texts, such as the so-called new historicism. After presenting a synthesis of these tools, the essay examines the construction of the narrative in Os sertões and shows how Cunha’s text is characterized by an inter-penetration of the system that informed the scientist with the system that governed the artist. As the intellectual and scientific framework imported from Europe proves inadequate in recording the Brazilian reality, Cunhas’ text begins slipping back and forth between history and fiction. In conclusion, it is argued that only in the interstices between history and fiction does Cunha manage to situate that truth which, starting right in his ‘Preliminary note’, he claimed as his prime objective.
