Summary/Abstract: The journal Atlantida, as a kind of mouthpiece of the Portuguese and Brazilian official line, is a very interesting object of historical analysis, reflecting certain cultural and political aspects of the two new republics in the turbulent years of the First World War and immediately following period as well as manifesting the wish for an intensification of transatlantic amity - a wish that extended beyond the life of the journal. This way of thinking made use of the Luso-Brazilian rapprochement as a strategy toward resolving the ongoing sense of crisis in Portugal by working toward an expanded awareness of a new kind of Latin brotherhood.
