Abstract(s)

Eugénio de Andrade would have celebrated his 100th birthday on January 19 this year. To honour this greatest poet of the Portuguese language, we intend to show the importance of his literary production in publicising and promoting different Literary Tourism offers in Porto. In this paper, we seek to reflect on the opportunity to use the poetic text as a source of information for getting to know the territory. The main goal is to promote literary tourism in the city of Porto through reading, textual interpretation and exploration of places, resulting in a proposal for a literary route as a tourism product in the city of Porto, based on excerpts from the work “Porto, os sulcos do Olhar”. Firstly, we clarify the relevance of this research through our biblio graphical research. Next, we emphasise that the diversity of the offer is a fundamental asset for tourism development, given that the valorisation of a destination’s tourism depends largely on the diversity and authenticity of its products. The methodology followed will be based on a review of the available bibliography in order to help consolidate the idea that Eugénio de Andrade, one of the greatest contemporary Portuguese-language poets, gives us a vision of the city of Porto through his writing, which could be a decisive tool in affirming and promoting literary tourism in the city.
