          Abstract

          This paper intends to study how three journalists, while writing about caipira and sertanejo music, managed to articulate conceptions of roots and authenticity in support of a genre that would be considered as a genuinely Brazilian one. Throughout each one’s approach, it’s possible to notice an updating of the myth of three races, through different perceptions of brazil’s discovery and colonization present in social imaginary representations and used in the discourses of several intellectuals. Furthermore there is an analysis of their understanding of the transformations undergone by caipira music since the moment it began to be registered phonographically, from the 1920s up to the nineties. Through this analysis, it’s possible to notice that the vibrant v.8 n.1 elizete ignácio dos santos argument of the modernization undertaken by some heirs of caipira tradition as a process leading to a loss for the genre is not produced without making them assume a ambivalent position in this process.

          Translated abstract

          Este artigo visa abordar como três jornalistas que escreveram sobre as músicas caipira e sertaneja articulam os conceitos de “raiz” e de “autenticidade” na defesa de um gênero que se pretende “genuinamente” brasileiro. A partir da compreensão que cada um nos oferece, é possível perceber a atualização do mito das três raças, através das diferentes percepções sobre o descobrimento e a colonização do Brasil presentes no imaginário social e proferido nos discursos de diversos intelectuais. Segue então uma análise das suas compreensões sobre as transformações ocorridas no campo da música caipira desde que ela passa a ser registrada em meios fonográficos na década de 1920 até a década de 1990. Observa-se que o argumento da modernização do gênero como um processo de perda da autenticidade provoca sentimentos ambivalentes que desestabilizam esta categoria.
