Resumo
The social sciences over the last few decades have rediscovered the relevance of space as an analytic category. The article discusses this 'spatial turn' from the perspective of Brazilian social thought, framed here as a form of peripheral imagination. Analyzing the long history of reflection on space among Brazilian intellectuals and writers, I suggest that these classic writings on the land and Brazil's sertão region provide important material for thinking of spatiality in contemporary society in a non-Eurocentric way.
