Abstract

This paper presents a study on the novel A ferro e fogo, by Josué Guimarães, and its main aim is to evaluate the vision of the state formation through the immigration and colonization process. For this purpose, the novel is delimited according to the family category, in which the vision of German ethnicity stated in the work is shown. Also, the construction of what is real in relation to the ethnicity experience in early times in Rio Grande do Sul, becomes evident due to structural aspects of the narrative. Therefore, we observed that a dialogue among fiction, history records and truths, which is asserted about German settlers, constantly happens.
