Previous issue date: 2009-09-17 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / This dissertation has analyzed texts, paper documents, from the beginning of the 19th century until the 1970s, and the records of the concerned thinking related to the preservation of the brazilwood/pau-brasil tree (Caesalpinia echinata) which social and political developments were also the object itself. The study aimed to understand the meaning (or meanings) of these concerns and the importance of preserving and maintaining that species of the Atlantic Coastal Forest. Source text that dealt exclusively with species like that tree in the forest has been analyzed. For three centuries of exploitation, the brazilwood was significant and commercially feasible, but at the beginning of the twentieth century, the wood was so rare that it got considered an extinct species. Its main usability and commercial application was dyeing, even so, the wood of the brazilwood got devalued by the application of artificial dyes on that. This tree had already guaranteed place in the history books, public spaces and, in the 1970s, occupied the post of national tree. The preliminary hypotheses were that in the 19th century, the brazilwood would be seen as just an item of exploration and trade, so that its conservation met with purely economic interests. In the speeches of the early twentieth century, the tree would be considered virtually extinct but it is now seen as a material that needs protection and preservation in public spaces for prosecuting the national memory. The governmental measures from the 1950s to 1970 would not have as the main argument the environment preservation. The brazilwood met a representative role of national wealth and it was historically important for Brazil. The speech analysis took into account the historical and symbolic evolution of the pau-brasil (Caesalpinia echinata) in different social contexts in which attempts to place its maintenance / Neste trabalho foram analisadas fontes de documenta??o textuais com discursos produzidos desde o in?cio do s?culo XIX at? a d?cada de 1970. O objeto de estudo foram os discursos que denotam preocupa??o de uma ?rvore na natureza. O estudo teve como objetivo saber qual o sentido (ou os sentidos) dessa preocupa??o. Por que era importante manter aquela esp?cie vegetal? Dessa maneira, fontes que trataram exclusivamente da quest?o da sua presen?a na mata foram analisadas. Durante tr?s s?culos de explora??o, o pau-brasil foi importante e vi?vel comercialmente, mas no in?cio do XX era t?o raro que foi considerado extinto e sua principal utilidade tinha sido superada pela inven??o dos corantes artificiais. Mas a ?rvore j? tinha lugar garantido nos livros did?ticos de hist?ria, em lugares p?blicos e, na d?cada de 1970, foi declarada ?rvore nacional. As hip?teses preliminares eram que no s?culo XIX, o pau-brasil seria visto como apenas mais um item de explora??o e com?rcio, cuja conserva??o atendia interesses puramente econ?micos. Nos discursos do in?cio do s?culo XX, a ?rvore seria considerada praticamente extinta na natureza e vista como um elemento que deveria ser mantido materialmente em espa?os p?blicos como exerc?cio de mem?ria. As medidas governamentais tomadas em rela??o ? ?rvore nas d?cadas de 1950 a 1970, n?o possuiriam como argumento principal a preserva??o ambiental, a ?rvore era vista como um elemento representativo das riquezas nacionais e importante para a hist?ria do pa?s.
