This work has the purpose of analyzing the constructed representation of the figure of João Fernandes Vieira in the work Valeroso Lucideno e triumpho da Liberdade (1648) written by Frei Manuel Calado. The narrative covers, from the Dutch invasions in Pernambuco territory that began in 1630 to the first moments of the Pernambuco Insurrection. Lucideno, like other works from the 1600s, had an immediate political aim. Its emergency nature is denoted by its narrative ending abruptly, without contemplating the Restoration War as a whole and sent to Portugal even before the end of the conflict. The purpose of publishing the work was to obtain the favor of the King and his Ministers towards the insurgents, being dedicated to D. Theodósio. However, it shows the heroicization of João Fernandes Vieira based on the events narrated. The military man and planter is conceived as an agent of Providence to liberate the people of Pernambuco from Dutch heretics. The research is based on the works of Evaldo Cabral de Mello, José Antônio Gonsalves de Mello, Sylvia Brito and Kleber Clementino, to understand the sociopolitical context, as well as the writing of the war carried out in the period. For the study of representations, the use of the works and writings of Roger Chartier proved to be essential to characterize the construction of the heroic figure of João Fernandes Vieira in Calado's narrative.
