The article presents a brief overview of the emergence of the cultural studies in England, the concepts of Stuart Hall and the appropriation of these searches by the literary studies, mainly in Latin America represented through the contributions of Ángel Rama. To exemplify this proposal, we analyze excerpts of the short stories 'Toada do Esquecido' (2006), 'Sinfoniaequestre' (2006), 'A proximidade do mar' (2011), 'O Velho Moço' (2011) and 'A perseguição' (2011), by Ricardo GuilhermeDicke, writer from the state of MatoGrosso, who promotes the dialogue between regional and global issues by the transculturation bias.
