HERD OF CALVES: A SONNET AS A WARNING
This article analyzes the poem "Herd of calves" by Dom Pedro Casaldáliga from the book: ``O tempo e a espera`` (2022) and explores his political and missionary role in the process of constructing the poem. Casaldáliga, a writer, theologian and Bishop Emeritus of the Prelacy of São Félix do Araguaia, in Mato Grosso, was an activist linked to Liberation Theology and representative of the oppressed people in the Araguaia region. The study focuses on the structure of the poem and theories of identity construction, seeking reflections on Casaldáliga's contribution to the identity redefinition of a people. The main objective is to share the results of the study for future research on engaged poetry in Mato Grosso.
