O presente estudo propõe a investigação da inscrição de Marques Rebelo na tradição da narrativa urbana carioca e a verificação de sua inserção nas linhas gerais do movimento modernista da década de 30. A fim de situar o referido movimento, procedeu-se à contextualização histórica da década de 30 no mundo, no Brasil e no Rio de Janeiro. O tão declarado resgate da tradição literária no romance de 30 foi estudado a partir do diálogo que o autor estabelece com Manuel Antônio de Almeida, João do Rio e Lima Barreto. Marques Rebelo teve seus romances estudados, ainda, em cotejo com o romance Salgueiro, de seu contemporâneo Lúcio Cardoso. Priorizando os romances Marafa e A estrela sobe, de Marques Rebelo, a pesquisa teve, entre outros objetivos, o de verificar a presença, na obra do autor, tanto das tendências mais significativas do romance de 30, quanto dos traços que deram forma à tradição da narrativa urbana carioca / This study proposes the investigation on how Marques Rebelo is inscribed in the carioca urban narrative, and the survey on how he is related to the general lines of the Modernist movement of the 1930s.
