Euclides da Cunha, the writer, was in 1904-1905 in a Brazilian-Peruvian diplomatic mission for reconnaissance of Purus River headwaters in the Amazon Region. Actually, the journey was part of the writer’s planned project to know the Forest, where he would turn out to be a witty military strategist and give the intelligence a plotted conception of South American continent integration and a significant doctrinal summary for a Brazilian geopolitics against dominant nations. That journey would also consolidate the telluric view of nationality, in line with the style that had exalted him.
