RESUMO:

For Pedro Henríquez Ureña (1978) "utopia is the motor of history and in the case of Latin America, where chaos and bewilderment prevail, only its light can indicate the path of hope to tired spirits." From this statement we develop this dissertation with the objective of analyzing the work La Guerra del Fin del Mundo (2010) by the Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa, whose background reveals the Canudos War (1896-1897). The main objective of the research is to identify and analyze the utopias present in the work. For that, we will use as a theoretical contribution the studies of Fernando Aínsa (1990) and Thierry Paquot (1999) as references to carry out both the mapping of utopias and the discussion of them. The study, therefore, will count on the following organization: first, we will seek to locate the work in the context of Hispanic-American literature from the mid-twentieth century, focusing on the dialogue produced by the author between literature and historical events that form the stage in which the plot unfolds; then we will point out intertextual elements (KRISTEVA, 2012) found in the work of Vargas Llosa (2010) with the narrative that supported the work, ie, Os Sertões (2012), by Euclides da Cunha; we will finally discuss the concept of utopia with emphasis on the utopia of Social Justice, also called Milenarism, already supposed in the title of the book. For this theme, the studies of Jean Delumeau (1997) and Hilário Franco Jr. (1992), who point to Millennialism as the expectation of a kingdom of this world, of a terrestrial paradise rediscovered, waiting for a messiah that must establish a "kingdom of peace that precedes the Last Judgment". In this way, Millenarism is related to the Paradise utopia, also addressed in the work.
