Abstract

This paper discusses part of the worker anarchist Santos Barbosa’s production, analyzing a short story and a dramatic prologue of his own entitled A Volta.... The texts were published in the Pelotas’s newspaper O Rebate throughout the year 1915. From the analysis of these works it is possible to acknowledge the importance that the workers had given to the debate concerning the First World War and its devastating effects. In his texts, Santos Barbosa presents several arguments concerning the war and shows interest in the defense of anarchists’s precepts such as the revulsion of government, capitalism, the figure of the god and the country, which sends young innocent men to pointless wars. This paper is based on the methodological perspective of Cultural History, and thus undertakes a historical narrative from literary and dramaturgical sources.
