The position of Brazil in Latin American Historiography has been unstable. Comparing the works of Marcelino Menéndez Pelayo, Martín García Mérou, and Pedro Henríquez Ureña, this article reconstructs different views on Brazilian literature and its relationship with the Hispanic tradition. The place of Brazil - for moments included, and for moments expelled out of Latin American totality - allow interrogating the changing selfimage of Latin America formed by literary criticism. --- Original in Spanish.
