Resumo: The purpose of this paper is to present the role of the food act in the images related to the work Visio Tnugdali, mainly the illuminated manuscript Getty Tondal (1475) in comparison to the Latin version by Marcus. These images are also compared with some woodcuts from the printed version in Germany, Ed. Speyer of the fifteenth century (De raptu animae Tundali et eius visione, 1483). The central theme of the narrative is the journey to beyond by a knight called Tundal, who undergoes a near-death experience and goes to the spaces of Purgatory, Hell and Paradise, accompanied by an angel, in order to make him aware of his sins. For this reason, he suffers during the journey some feathers, as well as, knows some delights of Paradise. The images and the narrative emphasize that punishment of humans is linked to the act of devouring, related to the education of humans for salvation. Humans suffer as if they were in a kitchen being cut, stuck, crumpled, melted, mass-transformed, and suffer again. The punishments are mainly related to the sins of lust and gluttony and could be suffered by clerics and laymen. The narrative also presents positive nutritional elements, for example, the host that the knight eats after his purification in the Beyond, represented on the front page of the Vision of Don Túngano (História del virtuoso cavaleiro Dõ Túngano, Toledo, 1526). Other positive food elements are related to Paradise, such as the tree of life and the source of living water, described in the Bible. Visual and mental food images related to kitchen space (referring to infernal places) and Biblical Eden are close to medieval everyday life, because the narrative sought to educate Christians for post-mortem salvation.

Estas imágenes también se comparan con algunas xilograbaciones de la versión impresa en Alemania, Ed. Speyer del siglo XV (De raptu animae Tundali et eius visione, 1483). El tema central de la narrativa es el viaje al más allá de un caballero llamado Tundal que pasa por una experiencia de casi muerte y va a los espacios del Purgatorio, Inferno y Paraíso, acompañado por un ángel, con el fin de concientizarse de sus pecados. Por este motivo, sufre, durante la jornada, algunas plumas, así como, conoce algunas delicias del Paraíso. Las imágenes y la narrativa enfatizan el hecho de que los castigos a los humanos están vinculados al acto de la devoración, relacionada a la educación de los humanos para la salvación. Los seres humanos sufren como si estuvieran en una cocina siendo cortados, espetados, amasados, derretidos, transformados en masa y vuelven a sufrir continuamente. Las sanciones se refieren principalmente a los pecados de la lujuria y gula y podrían ser sufridos por clérigos y laicos. La narración también presenta elementos nutricionales positivos, como, por ejemplo, la hostia que el caballero ingiere después de su purificación en el Más Allá, representada en el frontispicio de la Visión de Don Túngano (História del virtuoso cavaleiro Dõ Túngano, Toledo, 1526). Otros elementos alimenticios positivos están relacionados con el Paraíso, como el árbol de la vida y la fuente de agua viva, descritos en la Biblia. Las imágenes alimenticias visuales y mentales relacionadas con el espacio de la cocina (referente a los lugares infernales) y al Edén bíblico están cerca del cotidiano medieval, pues la narrativa buscaba educar a los cristianos para la salvación en el post mortem.O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar o papel do ato da alimentação nas imagens relacionadas à obra Visio Tnugdali, principalmente o manuscrito iluminado Getty Tondal (1475), em comparação com a versão latina de Marcus. Essas imagens também são comparadas com algumas xilogravuras da versão impressa na Alemanha, ed. Speyer do século XV (De raptu animae Tundali et eius visione, 1483). O tema central da narrativa é a viagem ao Além de um cavaleiro chamado Tundal, que passa por uma experiência de quase-morte e vai aos espaços do Purgatório, Inferno e Paraíso, acompanhado por um anjo, visando conscientizá-lo de seus pecados. Por este motivo, sofre, durante a jornada, algumas penas, bem como conhece algumas delícias do Paraíso. As imagens e a narrativa enfatizam o fato dos castigos aos humanos estarem vinculados ao ato da devoração, relacionada à educação dos humanos para a salvação. Os seres humanos sofrem como se estivessem numa cozinha sendo cortados, espetados, amassados, derretidos, transformados em massa e voltam a sofrer continuamente. As punições estão relacionadas principalmente aos pecados da luxúria e gula, e poderiam ser sofridas por clérigos e leigos. A narrativa também apresenta elementos nutricionais positivos, como, por exemplo, a hóstia que o cavaleiro ingere depois da sua purificação no Além, representada no frontispício da Vision de Don Túngano (História del virtuoso cavaleiro Dõ Túngano, Toledo, 1526). Outros elementos alimentares positivos estão relacionados ao Paraíso, como a árvore da vida e a fonte de água viva, descritos na Bíblia (1995). As imagens alimentares visuais e mentais relacionadas ao espaço da cozinha (referente aos lugares infernais) e ao Éden bíblico estão próximas do cotidiano medieval, pois a narrativa buscava educar os cristãos para a salvação no post-mortem.Universidade Estadual de Maringá2019-10-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/ActaSciEduc/article/view/4817510.4025/actascieduc.v41i1.48175Acta Scientiarum.
