This paper aims at revisiting main concepts of the Bakhtin Circle, especially the notion of dialogism, in order to think about the dense thread of voices that confront one another in the novel called Lavoura Arcaica (Tillage Passé) by Raduan Nassar. We intend to question a determined and concrete image about the poetry in the Circle's writings, reviewed by theorists in and outside Brazil, to demonstrate how the poetic can be influenced by ideological positions, reinforcing the emotional-volitional tone that stimulates the characters' central voices in Lavoura Arcaica.
