Resumo: The relationship between comics and religion is an approach of intense academic interest. Since the acknowledgment that the mass culture expressed in comics can communicate religious knowledge, many narratives were focused on by the academy. The superadventure, i.e., the narratives on superheroes fighting super villains, is also academically investigated, and shows theological potential to be expressed as a religious discourse. Among the superadventures that could be analyzed is the one about the superhero Shazam, whose powers come from divine figures; one of them, Solomon, is acknowledgedly Judeo-Christian, who is usually related to wisdom in the Hebrew Bible. Bearing this in mind, this work aims at briefly exploring the links between the biblical wisdom discourse and the 12-volume comics series “The Challenges of Shazam!”. For this end, the discourse analysis method was employed, starting with some of the main traits of the Hebrew Bible wisdom literature. In the end, the series shows the possibility of being read as a “wisdom superadventure”, precisely for its presentation of contextual, linguistic e communicational elements also present in the Hebrew Bible wisdom genre.

Desde o reconhecimento de que a cultura de massa, expressa pelas HQs, pode comunicar conhecimentos religiosos, diversas narrativas receberam atenção da academia. A superaventura, isto é, a narrativa de embate entre super-heróis e super-vilões, também é alvo de investigações acadêmicas, e possui potencial teológico para expressar-se como discurso religioso. Uma das superaventuras passíveis de análise é a do super-herói Shazam, cujos poderes são provenientes de figuras divinas; uma delas, Salomão, é reconhecidamente judaico-cristã, e na Bíblia Hebraica costuma ser associada à sabedoria. Com isso em mente, o objeto deste trabalho é explorar brevemente as relações que o discurso sapiencial bíblico possui com a narrativa em quadrinhos da série de 12 volumes “Os desafios de Shazam!”. Para tanto, foi aplicada a leitura metodológica da análise do discurso, tomando como base algumas das principais características que regem os enunciados de sabedoria da Bíblia Hebraica. No fim, a série demonstrou a possibilidade de ser lida como uma “superaventura sapiencial”, justamente por apresentar elementos contextuais, linguísticos e comunicacionais comuns ao gênero sapiencial da Bíblia Hebraica.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2021-12-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/5049610.23925/2236-9937.2021v25p72-105Teoliteraria - Journal of Literatures and Theologies (On Line) ISSN 2236-9937; Vol. 11 No. 25 (2021): Bíblias, Teologias e Literaturas: diversidade de abordagens; 72-105Teoliteraria - Revista de Literaturas y Teologías (On Line) ISSN 2236-9937; Vol. 11 Núm. 25 (2021): Bíblias, Teologias e Literaturas: diversidade de abordagens; 72-105TEOLITERARIA - Revista de Literaturas e Teologias; v. 11 n. 25 (2021): Bíblias, Teologias e Literaturas: diversidade de abordagens; 72-1052236-9937reponame:Teoliteráriainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/50496/38586https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/50496/39538Copyright (c) 2021 TEOLITERARIA - Revista de Literaturas e Teologiashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNovaes, Allan Macedo de Carmo, Felipe Silva Camargos e Silva, Thaís2021-12-23T15:43:16Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/50496Revistahttps://revistas.pucsp.br/teoliterariaPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/teoliteraria/oaialex@teoliteraria.com||teoliteraria@teoliteraria.com2236-99372236-9937opendoar:2021-12-23T15:43:16Teoliterária - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
