Resumo: | Latin Christian poetry has emerged in Constantine Era and flourished between 400 and 800. It has a fundamental role in the development of literary theory and critical discourse, because, except for Prudencio, the rest of the poets of this first period has chosen by the adaptation of the classical canon to Christian themes. The Christian epic is therefore one of the first genres and begins as biblical epic. The first major work of this type is the Gospel Harmony from the Spanish poet Juvencus, until 330. This work begins a long series of biblical poetry, Latin at first, but after this there is its continuation in the vernaculars, like Caedmon, Cynewulf, The Heliand, The Passion by Clermont till Ojeda, Milton and Klopstock.The dedication to the established authority , the subordination of the art´s purpose for the salvation of the soul as well as the desire to legitimize poetry with Christian arguments remain as fundamental premises in the construction of gender. When the modern epic apear, its compromise with new theological Aporia will not lose those extraliterary requirements from provenance.Keywords: Latin Christian poetry; Constantine Era; Virgil. |

La epopeya cristiana es, pues, uno de los primeros géneros y comienza, además, siendo epopeya bíblica. La primer obra importante de este tipo es la Harmonía evangélica del poeta hispano Juvenco, hacia el 330. Esta obra inicia una larga serie de poemas bíblicos, latinos en un primer momento, pero que después tendrán su continuación en las lenguas vulgares, desde Caedmon, Cynewulf, el Heliand, La Pasion de Clermont, hasta Hojeda, Milton y Klopstock. La dedicatoria a la autoridad instalada, la subordinación de los fines del arte a la salvación del alma tanto como el afán de legitimar la poesía con argumentos cristianos quedarán como premisas fundamentales en la construcción del género. Cuando la epopeya ingrese en la modernidad, su compromiso con las nuevas aporías teológicas, no le harán perder esos requisitos extraliterarios que le habían dado origen.Palabras clave: poesía cristiana latina; época de Constantino; VirgilioPontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2012-03-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/2293710.19143/2236-9937.2016v1n1p14-28Teoliteraria - Journal of Literatures and Theologies (On Line) ISSN 2236-9937; Vol. 1 No. 1 (2011): Só poetas: Mútiplas relações entre Poesias e Teologias; 14-28Teoliteraria - Revista de Literaturas y Teologías (On Line) ISSN 2236-9937; Vol. 1 Núm. 1 (2011): Só poetas: Mútiplas relações entre Poesias e Teologias; 14-28TEOLITERARIA - Revista de Literaturas e Teologias; v. 1 n. 1 (2011): Só poetas: Mútiplas relações entre Poesias e Teologias; 14-282236-9937reponame:Teoliteráriainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/22937/16605Calderón de Cuervo, Elena Maríainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-12-13T19:00:48Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/22937Revistahttps://revistas.pucsp.br/teoliterariaPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/teoliteraria/oaialex@teoliteraria.com||teoliteraria@teoliteraria.com2236-99372236-9937opendoar:2022-12-13T19:00:48Teoliterária - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false |
