| Sumario: | The main purpose of this article is to analyze the episode known as Guerra dos Marimbondos, a rebellion against obligatory civil registration of births and deaths in the Brazilian empire, considering the negotiation processes on the construction of imperial state.

The text presents the episode - particularly in Pernambuco - and remarks the government efforts to delegitimize the mouvement, discussing Guerra dos Marimbondos' expressiveness and its political and social meanings. |
