Abstract

This internship project is a part of the Masters Project named "Literatura e Museu: Estudo dos Museus Literários Casa Guilherme de Almeida (SP) e Casa Guimarães Rosa (MG) and a proposal of continuation of the internship project named "Stratégies de Muséalisation de la Littérature: Les Recherches Internationales et l'Expérience Française". All of these projects complement each other in order to contribute for the Brazilian scenery of the research in the field of literary museums. The project intends to enlarge the repertoire of literary exhibitions, collect materials about literary museology and get in contact with a varied sort of practices and thoughts about literary museums. As the Hungarian acting is based on a series of international partnerships and exchanges, we see this project as an opportunity to know not only the Hungarian reality. We understand the opportunity of also knowing a little bit of the strategies and ideas of many countries which have inspired or exchanged knowledge with Hungary, especially the Petöfi Literary Museum.
