The same Independence: the public performance of a unitarian partisan (Pernambuco, 1822-1823)

This article analyzes the public performance of the monk Miguel do Sacramento Lopes Gama in the periodic press between 1822 and 1823. The compositions of monk Miguel intended to construct the ideology that - since the unity of the Portuguese-Brazilian kingdom was broken - the sovereignty needed to pass to a new political unit, Brazil. Known in the Northern provinces as Rio de Janeiro's Project, this ideology was the basis of a conception of nation, foreseeing very reduced provincial powers if compared to the previous period - the legality of the "vintista" constitutionalism.
