Abstract

In the present article, Poetas sem qualidade, a anthology of contemporary Portuguese poetry is presented from the analysis of the four paratexts in order to understand the importance of the mentions (as citations, in this publication) to the poetic legacies of important writers, especially those  of Camões, Helder and Musil, which inaugurates the editorial practices of publishing label Averno, in Portugal, in the beginning of this century.
