Abstract

This paper aims at analyzing two projects by the Portuguese writer Gonçalo M. Tavares. The dialogical character of his work has attracted  critics and readers’ attention around the world. In this essay, we discuss the book series “O Bairro” and Biblioteca, in which  there is a  reinterpretation  of classic authors. The concepts of tradition and canon are revisited here in order to verify how Tavares establishes a dialogical relationship with some of the most important writers in the history of literature, not under the sign of influence, but as the result of  the process of  reading  and creation that the author proposes to himself.
