At the same time, we emphasize the dramatic potential of the writer’s literary inheritance. Lastly, we point out that the narrow collaboration between literature and audiovisual, besides revitalizing the classic narratives, also allows cultural democratization of the Portuguese literary tradition for the present generations.porAdaptationAudiovisualLiteratureEça de Queirósconference object
