Abstract

Architectural monumentality is a constituent factor of nationality. The monument becomes a materiality of the national feeling and composes the narratives relevant to the construction of collective memory. In Brazil, after the Revolution of 1930, the institution of historical heritage, composed of buildings and urban complexes, had the fundamental role of the architect Lúcio Costa for the constitution of the collection of Brazilian national monuments. This is the subject of this article.
