Abstract

This reflection is intended to promote a dialogue between literature and theology. Literature will highlight the poetry of Murilo Mendes (1901-1975). The poetry of Murilo Mendes abundantly deal with the question of God, the Word of God, of religiosity, of Christianity and the person of Jesus which marked the human subject from the approach by the literary universe.
