The social sciences and humanities contains some dilemmas that reflect empirical and theoretical problems; one such challenge is interdisciplinarity and the place of subjectivity. This article discusses these issues while also serving as a tribute to Eli Napoleão de Lima, a professor and researcher whose work centered around Brazil’s sertão backlands, the nation and region, Amazon rainforest, and literature about the countryside. She pursued her work with great passion, precisely at the conflicting intersection of the social sciences, history, and literature. Her class entitled “Agrarian Roots of Social Formation in Brazil” made important impressions on generations of young social scientists. In this specific interdisciplinary place of knowledge, Professor Napoleão de Lima helped to make the CPDA/UFRRJ the main center for research on social and rural studies in Brazil.
