Abstract

The present article discusses the ethnographical dimension of the texts of Aquilino Ribeiro. This writer, one of the 
most important ones of Portugal, published several works on the ethnography of his birthplace in central Portugal, 
and his fiction is located there. Besides, he wrote in a nationalist context where the regional and the ruralwhere highly valued in literature, being conceived at the same time as the testimony of ways of life truly nationals. 
The interest of his work lies not only in its importance for the reconstruction of rural ways of life in the first 
half of the twentieth-century, but also as a source for the knowledge of ways of seeing the nation, the region and 
the country life.
