Abstract

In this article, we aim to present some Portuguese routes of production, circulation and critical reception of / on poetry in the present time. For this, we present three reference poetry magazines edited from the 90s, in Portugal, namely: relâmpago, Cão Celeste e Telhados de Vidro . The study of these vehicles of dissemination of poetry and its criticism demonstrates some important trail in the discussion of contemporary poetics and highlights some remarkable lyrical voices and essay writers in this context. We also seek to highlight how each of these magazines elaborates its strategies of sharing poetic and reflective work with its readers, constructing certain critical scenes. Some dialogue with Brazilian poetry and essays on contemporary poetry is also observed, including with reference to the magazine Inimigo Rumor.
