Os ensaios que formam este livro foram escritos por estudantes da Graduação em Letras Português Presencial do Instituto Federal do Espírito Santo, campus Vitória. Foram apresentados primeiramente como trabalhos acadêmicos que compuseram parte dos créditos necessários para aprovação na disciplina de Literatura em Língua Portuguesa, ministrada por mim. Resultaram das reflexões feitas ao longo de cada um dos períodos em que foram estudadas as obras dos autores entre os quais os alunos escolheram aquelas com as quais sentiram mais afinidade para, acerca delas, desenvolverem os textos que aqui se encontram.
