Sumario:In this article we aim to demonstrate how Eduardo Galeano configures his narrative, adapting it to the demands of historiography. We proceed to a formal and content analysis, investigating the way the Uruguayan writer, in his text “La reconquista de Brasil”, from the work Memoria del fuego (2010), can meet the imperatives of historiographic making, such as the dating of facts, the documentary register, the critique of the sources, the historical agents and the objectivity of the language. The results of the analysis revealed that Galeano composes another narrative perspective to approach the 1964 Military Coup in Brazil. In this sense, we conclude that the way Galeano composes his text can be seen as a historiographical narrative that does not deviate from the theory of literature, but adds its methodology.
