Abstract

The present study is based on an analysis of the intellectual trajectory of Carlos Marighella. Consequently, the construction and ideological line adopted by the ALN, one of the most important guerrilla organizations formed in Brazil after the 1964 civilmilitary coup. Therefore, the established sieve essentially included the writings of Carlos Marighella, founder and leader of the aforementioned revolutionary organization. The incendiary combined the dynamism of practical revolutionary with an intense literary production. Marighella's writings merge with the nature of the leftist guerrilla organization - the ALN - in which the whole ideological and doctrinal structure is initiated, including "organizational principles," "tactical principles," and "strategic principles." Then, it is possible to highlight, in the process of maturity of its texts, the theoretical, ideological and practical construction proposed by Marighella for the ALN that will converge in the action as guiding principle of the organization, bringing to the surface the sui generis contribution of its ideas to the Revolutionary left. The period comprised by the research began in 1948 when party teaching debates initiated due illegality that the Brazilian Communist Party had initiated and ended in 1969 with the assassination of Carlos Marighella for military repression.
