- Abstract
The article discusses the political trajectory of Bento de Figueiredo Tenreiro Aranha, an important intellectual and journalist from the Far North of the country, where he stood out as the greatest propagandist of the republican cause. Dividing his long public life of more than 50 years between the cities of Belém and Manaus, he became, around 1870, a pioneer in the defense of the republican regime in Amazonas and Pará, reverberating his ideas of a popular and revolutionary Republic through a journalistic chronicle most intense and incisive. Discontented with the Republic, he became associated with political Jacobinism for turning his radical criticism against the first republican governments and the winning model of Republic of the 15th of November. Bento Aranha, who came to assume several parliamentary terms in the Province of Amazonas, came to the end of his life considering himself excluded and ostracized. His uncomfortable voice contributed to also make him forgotten, not only by the society in which he worked (and fought for), but also by historiography. To accompany him through his chronicles in the press, is to open the possibility for the understanding of how the Republic was thought, received and also fought outside the traditional spaces of power in Brazil.
