Laburpena: This research studies the 1891' United States of Brazil Constitution and coronelismo, from the classic book “São Bernardo”, written by Graciliano Ramos. This article makes a counterpoint between the work’s narrative and Brazilian history, by focusing on the influence of landowning colonels from the Brazilian Empire until the Revolution of 30. The colonel was the traditional figure of the region, who exercised influence and dominion over all by charisma, economic, technical or intellectual power, and often out of fear, since it resorted to political violence in order to intimidate and manipulate the population. Brazilian history shows that the adoption of foreign constitutional models, as occurred in 1891, ended up strengthening the de facto power of local colonels, to the detriment of the rule of law and democratic and republican institutions.
