In a continental country like Brazil, the territory contributes to the formation of various identities linked to the different spaces that make up the national reality. The literary tradition, by conferring aesthetic treatment to such identity formations, elaborates myths that structure the social imaginary referring to the notion of Brazilianness. Among the myths thus produced, the myth of the sertanejo is central to both the national identity issue and the development of the literary tradition. This work approaches the evolution of this sign from the analysis of characteristic works of different moments of the Brazilian literary system: Os Sertões, by Euclides da Cunha; Vidas Secas, by Graciliano Ramos; Grande Sertão: Veredas, by Guimarães Rosa; O rio and Morte and Vida Severina, by João Cabral de Melo Neto and Essa Terra, by Antônio Torres. The research revealed that the literary representation fractures the sertanejo category in two genera according to the different migratory itineraries that they perform: the errant sertanejo and the sertanejo retirante.

The concern about the illness of the inhabitants of the northeastern region resulting from droughts occurred cyclically, comes from the Brazil colony times and continue to the present day. Initially plagued droughts were mentees to settle on the banks of rivers to facilitate access to water and fishing. Nowadays they continue to support this as a priority, implemented in different ways. But fish farming is still one of them, whose works started with native species for over 80 years, has established itself as a landmark. For the importance of common curimatã to the backcountry, the LaGePe considered the species as a research priority and sought financial support through various projects until he left the CNPq Notice 81-2013. In this call was approved the project No. 487457/2013-7: "Development activities in research, teaching and extension for education and training of fishers and aquicultoras families in a agroecological production system of common Curimatã (Prochilodus cearaensis Steindachner, 1911)". The species was named by adapting and surviving the most varied climatic conditions of the region, contributing to feed and provide means for obtaining unemployment insurance (during the closed season) of artisanal fishermen settlers. The activities developed in the aforementioned project sought to stimulate skills, aptitudes, and awakening the fisherman's interest in fish farming and getting the fish, leading to an improved quality of life for their families. The results were encouraging and with possibilities of great scope, such as training in distance education; captive breeding and replacement of lost inventory during droughts; possibility of production in cages, aviaries and masonry tanks; and generate public policies that enable Brazilian institutions responsible for fisheries, guidance support to fishermen (fishwomen) craft.

The album Tom do Sertão, a compilation of Tom Jobim's covers, was launched in 2015 by the Brazilian country duo Chitãozinho & Xororó, has reawaken a series of disputes involving sertanejo music, namely: an apparent incompatibility between such genre and Brazilian Popular Music, here represented by Jobim's repertoire, and the conflict between tradition and modernity in the sertanejo universe. It is our goal in this paper to present such debate and develop the hypothesis that social-technical networks have served as key mediators of such conflicts, configuring themselves as strategic spaces of approach between these music universes, apparently opposite to one another. Based on the premise of music scenes virtualization, we collected and analyzed publications in social network sites related to the album's release, focusing on the duo's fanpage on Facebook. We conclude that they put sertanejo in a place of respectful and not obvious link to MPB, as well as of country and technological ideals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
