RESUMO

In 1980, the Nova Renascença magazine was first published, in Portos city, lasting untill 1999. One of its main goals, continuously displayed in its editorials and manifestos, as well as in some of its texts of literary critics, was to re-elaborate Portugals identity, which by uniting tradition and modernity, made, out of the Portuguese language, its mythical expression. We know that myths while expressed in symbolical terms serve different functions and uses, from most creatives to most rhetorical, becoming always a dangerous expression. Taking, therefore, from this assumption, we seek, in this work, to present some of the different meanings that the mythic-poetic proposal of the language and the Nation assume in the magazine, having always its global context, in which occurs the actual debate between the return of the myth and post-modernity, as horizon.
