This work aims to analyze the intertextual relations between the work O Vermelho e o Negro, by Stendhal, and Os tambourines de São Luís, by JosuéMontello. With the focus on the role of the writer's library in the process of literary creation, we hope to reconstruct a way of reading that brings the Montello reader of Stendhal closer to the Montello writer. For this, we used the discussions about intertextuality in Samoyault (2008) and the writer's library in Lopez (2007), in addition to the critical apparatus of Montello (1973) and Oliveira (2007) and the marginalia collected in the library of Josué Montello in Stendhal (1939). As methodological procedures, after going through the theoretical questions about intertextuality in the writer's library, we will compare Montello's critical writings on the two works with an emphasis on the treatment of historical events that comprise them, in addition to analyzing the examples of Stendhal's work that appear in the Josué Montello's library. As a result, several points of convergence were found between aspects of the works that showed the influence of one on the other, making it clear that the process of literary creation uses different techniques to achieve its final result.
