In this essay, I offer a theoretical proposal that re-semanticizes naturalismo. I propose that is a diachronic counter-metanarrative phenomenon that transcends the chronological and geographic limitations imposed by traditional criticism on naturalism. Re-read within the proposed theoretical framework, that traces the 'Long Tail' of naturalismo in the Hispanic context all the up to contemporarry Hispanic cinema, I propose that naturalismo, in a broad sense, is a diachronic post-modern socio-aesthetic phenomenon that transcends its nineteenth century roots and helps explain the ongoing disfunctionality of Hispanic society to the present day, a world predicated on a traditional belief in the slippery codes of modernidad in a post-modern context. As such, it is a potent epistemological tool for understanding not only Hispanic cultural production, but the 'naturel' state of affairs of Hispanic socio-cultural evolution in general in the globalized world in which we live.

After introducing some biographical details of the poet in their historical contexts, the chapter considers further the reputation of the poet, established in the Brazilian literary canon as the poet who most fully exemplified the thematic conventions and stylistic norms of Parnassianism, a neo-classical literary movement, also linked to the ideals of posivitism, and heavily influential in Brazil at this time. the chapter traces the way in which this reputation was established by Francisca Júlia's peers, and then examines more closely the actual content of the poet's principal volume "Poesias", whose content in reality displays considerable psychic anguish and a considerably more complex relationship than has been traditionally represented with the Parnassian movement and its thematic contexts.
