Resumo: |
In the present research, we investigate the imagination of medieval dragons, navigating through certain literary paths in which the dragon gains some prominence: the Scriptures, hagiographies, bestiaries and encyclopedias, and other literatures, for that, studying the animal symbolism in the Middle Ages, the notions of magic, marvelous and monstrous as well as imagination for the Middle Ages. From there, we apply our analyzes to three sources: the Welsh text The Adventure of Lludd and Llefelys, c. 13th century, History of the Kings of Great Britain, by Geoffrey of Monmouth, 12th century, and History of the Britons, c. 9th century. The common point among the texts, for this research, is the episode about the fight between two dragons, a native and a foreigner. Our hypothesis is that the dragon, as a potent symbolic figure, represents the desire of the Welsh courts to eliminate the invaders and their own eagerness to recover the status of sovereignty in the Islands. Thus, the draconic imagery is read, in Wales, in order to adapt to the expectations and needs of that public. |
