This work is the acceptance of two challenges proposed by reading the novel O tetraneto del-rei (1982), by Haroldo Maranhão (1927-2004). First is understand it as a text of challenged, able to resume the original texts, detaching them from their context and giving them new meanings, beyond the issue of cultural dependency, occupying the "entrelugar" mentioned by Silviano Santiago (1971), through a text that deconstructs the tradition, surpassing the particular to the universal. The second challenge is to prove that this novel is a example that Roland Barthes (2002) called "fruition text", which it will be possible only if the first understand as a parody, and thus can realize the distance between the parody and the parodied text and mainly, understand irony and reflexivity that according Linda Hutcheon (1989) characterizes the parody.
