O historiador e o sociólogo: Nicolau Sevcenko e Sergio Miceli.

This paper discusses the relations between the works of the Brazilian researchers Nicolau Sevcenko and Sergio Miceli – the historian and the sociologist. In exploring the “dialogue” between them, some considerations are made about the different approaches of the sociology of culture and social and cultural history. Two reviews of Miceli’s books by Nicolau Sevcenko and a annotated book of Miceli belonging to Sevcenko are the main sources. In addition to this, the article comments on the constituition of a new field of research in Brazil, related to literature and the arts, from the 1970’s. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
