The present work consists of two essays about the theme of male homoeroticism in Brazilian poetry between the 17th and 21st centuries. The established analyzes dialogue with the literary studies on the subject, with research on sexuality, gender and Pajubá. They are based on a homoerotically avaible looking and, more precisely, the “gay overview” of the researcher, too. In the first essay, “Homoerotismo masculino para além da ‘Boca do Inferno’”, there are three exemplifying subtopics of three poetic configurations. In the first one, “Sob configuração gongadeira”, are read poems by Gregório de Matos, Manuel Inácio da Silva Alvarenga, Francisco Moniz Barreto, Paulo Vellozo, Jayme Santos Neves, Guilherme Santos Neves and Paulo Franchetti. In the second one, “Sob configuração discreta”, are read poems by Mário de Andrade and Carlos Drummond de Andrade. And in the third one, are read poems by Junqueira Freire, Roberto Piva, Caio Fernando Abreu and Hilda Hilst. Among the results obtained are: the configurations of the theme run through from the notions of sin, tareness and deviation, in negative perspectives; to the notions of homoerotic affection and desire, in affirmative perspectives. However, there is no temporal linearity between them. Another result obtained is that the theme is established in poetry from textual elaborations, both explicit and implicit. In the second essay, poems from A hora e vez de Candy Darling (2016), by Horácio Costa, are analyzed, and the conclusion that they effect a thematic expansion of male homoeroticism, incorporating from homoaffectiveness and homophobia, to the plural LGBT+ existences.
