Resumo: This article conducted an analysis on the multiple images of the Devil, based on three illuminations of the 15th century. It is possible to observe the following elements: 1-the evil one as a head, with a huge open mouth, known as the Hellmouth; 2-as a human being, but with animalistic characteristics, carrying claws, the tail, among other things, still with devouring aspect; 3-represented in beautiful shape, as the rebel angel, Lucifer, expelled from heaven by God. Three images were analyzed; one from the narrative Vision of Tondal, which it is represented as the Beast Acheron, in the form of Hellmouth, and two images of the book Les Très Riches Heures of the Duc de Berry (The Very Rich Hours of the Duke of Berry), when figured with animalistic features in the image entitled "Inferno" (fl.108r) and with his angelic features in "The fall of the Rebel Angels" (fl. 64v). In the last two illuminations the Devil presents ruler of Hell elements. Moreover, it is clear that this has ambiguous features in Christian imagination.

Foi possível observar os seguintes elementos: 1- o ente maléfico como uma cabeça, com uma imensa boca aberta, conhecida como a Boca do Inferno; 2-o ser do Mal humano, mas com características animalizadas, portando garras, pelo, rabo, entre outros aspectos, ainda com aspecto devorador; 3-Lúcifer representado de forma bela, como o anjo rebelde expulso do Céu por Deus. Foram analisadas três imagens; uma da obra Vision de Tondal, na qual é representado como a Besta Aqueronte, em forma de Boca do Inferno, e duas imagens do livro Les Très Riches Heures do Duc de Berry, quando é figurado com traços animalescos na imagem intitulada “Inferno” (fl.108r) e ainda com suas características angélicas em “A queda dos Anjos Rebeldes” (fl. 64v). Nas duas últimas iluminuras o Diabo apresenta elementos de soberano do Inferno. Além disso, foi possível constatar que esse ser apresenta traços ambíguos no imaginário cristão.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2016-09-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionHistorical researchPesquisa históricaapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/2461310.5433/1984-3356.2016v9n17p12Antíteses; Vol. 9 No. 17 (2016): Dossìe: Imagem na Idade Média; 12-35Antíteses; v. 9 n. 17 (2016): Dossìe: Imagem na Idade Média; 12-351984-3356reponame:Antítesesinstname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/24613/19644Copyright (c) 2016 Antítesesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessZierer, Adriana Maria de Souza2021-10-20T14:34:13Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/24613Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antitesesPUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/oaiantiteses@uel.br||1984-33561984-3356opendoar:2021-10-20T14:34:13Antíteses - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false
