This work was constructed from a crossroads between Geography and Literature. In a research proposal of an epistemological nature, the author proposes a definition of man in a part of Jorge Amado's work with an urban theme. Mar Morto (1936); Tenda dos Milagres (1969); Jubiabá (1935) and A morte e a morte de Quincas Berro D'Água (1959) were the works chosen. The works by Jorge Amado covered in the chapters are all urban-themed, considering a geographical reading of the city of Salvador, with the area of concentration corresponding to the neighbourhood of the city centre and its surroundings. Themes such as: class struggle, racial clashes, miscegenation, precarious working conditions in the city, Afro-descendant culture and religion, female protagonism, popular social ascension, the power of the elements of nature and urban landscapes, were important subjects throughout the text. This work is based on an ontological reading, where man as a subject is the main theoretical concern.
