Triste Fim De Policarpo Quaresma

Triste Fim de Policarpo Quaresma

by Lima Barreto

Triste Fim de Policarpo Quaresma é uma obra satírica e crítica que explora as complexidades do nacionalismo brasileiro no início do século XX. Através da história de Policarpo Quaresma, um homem idealista que se dedica à causa da pátria, Lima Barreto retrata os abismos sociais e políticos da época, a hipocrisia da elite e a luta inglória do indivíduo contra a realidade. A narrativa, em tom irônico e às vezes trágico, acompanha as tentativas frustradas de Quaresma em promover mudanças e a sua gradual decadência mental e moral, culminando em um final melancólico. A obra aborda temas como a corrupção política, a desigualdade social, a falta de apoio à cultura nacional e a fragilidade do idealismo frente à realidade.
