| Resumo: | In its first part this article attempts to examine the doctrinaire and theoretical preoccupations as they appear in the work of the arcadian miner Manuel Inacio da Silva Alvarenga (1749 - 1814) and notes the way in which they connected to the exercsie of criticism. The second part looks at the author's sonnets, discussing six attributions which, to date, have been unknown, and giving notice of the discovery of eight unpublished works. The Annexes 1 and II present, in a criticla edition, an unpublished prose work on literary criticism and the ten identified sonnets.
