Abstract

Modernity is a privileged place to understand some organizations. Place of disciplinal, the narratives, between other forms, were cloistered in scientifical models, making the notion of time a tool for construction. The result of processes which passed through this sieve was used like the middle of construction for the modern statements. The historiography was one of these results; this paper propose make a reverse way: find in time and space a observatory from which the sentences are sent. Francisco Adolfo Varnhagen, Romário Martins, Celso Furtado, Fernado Azevedo, Paulo Prado, among others, are the source of this reflection about utopia and reality.
