The manuscripts attest a form of memory and a creative process that say a lot about a cultural moment. Memory and mental mechanism here combine simultaneously. The researcher seeks the complex thread which connects social to individual memory in the particular arrangement that the manuscript points out; and the scattered elements that compose the unpredictable logic of the manuscript. Thus, the manuscripts enable us to follow the composition logic; the act of creating regarding the literary text; from the initial silence to the rhythm that the scripture chases among erasures, hesitations, variants and resumptions. The researcher bets on the collection of elements allowing him to see the text in action - the manuscript - from the detection of discontinuities in the writing process. This creative process can be well explained in the manuscripts of Graciliano Ramos, Gustave Flaubert or Guimarães Rosa. This article tries to show how manuscripts can help in the meaning of the final text.
