This article presents an analysis of the search for the meaning of life and human happiness linked to science, from an interdisciplinary approach that includes two texts from different areas, that is literature in a specific poem O homem; as viagens (Man; Travels) (Andrade, 1973) and sociology in the book Um Discurso sobre as Ciências (A Discourse on the Sciences) (Santos, 1997). Parallels are drawn between the two texts, regarding the paradigm of modernity, the quest for human happiness through science, the decline of mechanistic positivist ideals, and the emergence of a new integrative, complex paradigm. Representing areas until recently seen as opposites, both texts offer us insights from different ways of thinking and the use of words that allow us an accurate view of the human ideal of achievement, whether through scientific knowledge, or self-knowledge and with the action of coexistence.
