The essential features of the literary history of the 16th century were established in the last decades of the 19th century. It depends upon a number of civic and political assumptions related to the overall vision of the Portuguese 16th century. Within the current framework of the ¿rehabilitation¿ of literary history - with the purpose of strengthening its theoretical consciousness and its attention to the aesthetic - it is time to reassess those assumptions, as well as the results they have yielded in both research and teaching.
The case of Bernardim Ribeiro is taken as an example of this process of biased construction and both its foundations and its consequences are examined.
