This paper has mobilized studies on dialogism and dialogical relations, central categories in Bakhtin's thinking and the circle, in order to understand how they can be applied to teaching. For this, the objective was to analyze dialogism as a theoretical-methodological potential for teaching literature, specifically in high school. Under the horizon of Bakhtin's thought and the Circle, it is possible to devise effective teaching methodologies, which enrich the understanding of language that is constituted in the classroom. It is necessary for a professor of literature to explore the discursive frontiers of the text by exploring not only the form (whether it is sonnet, free verse, haiku) or material (verbal or imagery, marble or wood carving), but above all all these elements articulated with the content situated historically. After the theoretical discussions, it was investigated how dialogism concretises itself analytically, specifically in a poem by Almeida Garret entitled "This Inferno to love!", present in his book Fallen Leaves. In the conclusions, it was noticed that, through the dialogic methodology, several fields of knowledge were explored so that it can awaken in the subjects students a critical reading and comprehension capacity, with plural points of view, from an alternative perspective.
