Resumo: |
This thesis analyzes the reception of the myth of the basileus Heraclius (ca. 575-641) by the French cleric Gautier d’Arras. In Eracle (late 12th century), tripartite octosyllabic romance (6570 verses), Gautier adapted the biographical trajectory of the Byzantine ruler, from his birth to his death. Especially in the third part of the work, the author was based in the Reversio Sanctae Crucis, liturgical text that popularized the Heraclian myth in the Western Christian imaginary. In Reversio, whose authorship was attributed to the Carolingian Rabanus Maurus, are celebrated the triumph of Heraclius against the Persians and the recovery of the relic of the Holy Cross and of Jerusalem. Initially we analyze the origin of the myth in three authors of the Western Early Middle Ages: two from “historical tradition” (Fredegar and Mozarabic Chronicler) and one from “legendary tradition” (Pseudo-Rabanus). Then, we enter into the core of the thesis, with the exam of the reception and “literarization” of the mythical figure of Heraclius by Gautier d’Arras. Influenced by a symbolic language, the cleric introduced the stages of the hero’s childhood/youth (1st part of the romance) and adapted the narrative of the Reversio (3rd part of the romance). With his literary talent and imaginative freedom, Gautier potentiated certain characteristics of the basileus and originally introduced others, which resulted in a singular character. In the same way, the “update” of Reversio content became the Byzantine ruler a more familiar man to the public of the 12th century |
