<p>Abstract:</p><p>Este artigo focaliza a obra ficcional e ensaÃstica do escritor paraense Raimundo Morais relativa à região amazônica. As problemáticas em estudo são o diálogo entre as formas cientÃfica e popular de conhecimento, e as relações estabelecidas pelo autor entre esses saberes e a promoção da prosperidade material da região. Para tanto, analisamos situações ficcionais apresentadas em seus romances em diálogo com temas discutidos em seus ensaios. ConcluÃmos que, ainda que as ideias do escritor sejam modeladas pelo paradigma cientÃfico e tecnológico ocidental e por um ideal europeizante, sua obra mostra-se veÃculo de difusão do conhecimento indÃgena e popular da região, alimentando um projeto nativista de valorização dos saberes tradicionais da cultura amazônica.</p><p>Abstract:</p><p>This article focuses on the fictional work and essays regarding Amazonia by Brazilian writer Raimundo Morais. The problems under study are the dialogue between scientific and popular knowledge and its relationship to the promotion of material prosperity in the region. To do so, we analyze fictional situations in his novels, in dialogue with subjects discussed in his essays and conclude that his ideas are modelled after the Western paradigm and Europeanization ideals, even though the author recognizes the value of indigenous and popular wisdom as a treasure of traditional knowledge.</p>
