Resumen
Backland¹ are not only geographic spaces limited by physically established borders. It is a
space composed by events, experiences, behavior, symbology, manners related to how to live
and see the world. It is developed from historical processes and layers of discourses that
contact each other, compete among themselves, establish agreement, promote consensus
which define, resignify and update them over time. The present paper seeks to analyze and
discuss the forms in which discourses produced by cordel literature² sold and consumed in
popular locations, from backlands to coast cities, during the first four decades of 20th century,
represented the environment, habits, moral codes, cultural traits, social types, rites and beliefs,
related to northeastern backlands. The paper also aims to investigate the forms on how
discourses produced by representations contributed to the constitution of backlands as a space
culturally constructed. Poems from the poet and editor João Martins de Athayde will be used
to establish dialogues between discourses produced by cordel and others discursive
modalities, such as, newspapers, prose literature, painting, texts of memoirists and
historiography, about backlands, analyzing how those representations circulated, were
consumed and absorbed by backlands and other spaces inhabitants, contacted and agreed
with other types of discourse, supporting the establishment of backlands as a space and
countryside people as a social type
