Resumo: The main purpose of this paper is to investigate, applying narratology to early Greek hexameter poetry, moments when the primary narrator, in the pursuit of his activity as a focalizer, exposes his presence in the Iliad. In order to do this, we selected excerpts of the poem in which the narrator uses evaluative adjectives or establishes a difference between his own narration and the secondary ones by means of the filter he applies. We discuss evaluative adjectives that qualify the gods and humans and how they reveal a partial narrator who makes moral judgments about the gods, their objects and actions, and the humans. A second objective is to discuss the instance responsible for the narrative: divine, in view of the invocation of the Muse in the proem and in other moments of the poem, or human, in view of the traditional attribution of the singing to Homer.

Para isso, selecionamos trechos do poema nos quais o narrador vale-se de adjetivos avaliadores ou, devido ao filtro que o narrador impõe, estabelece uma divergência entre sua narração e as secundárias. Discute-se nessa seleção os adjetivos avaliadores que qualificam o mundo dos deuses e dos humanos, tornando evidente um narrador parcial e que, portanto, faz juízos morais acerca dos deuses, seus objetos e ações e dos humanos. Um segundo objetivo, interligado, é discutir a instância responsável por essa narrativa, se divina, em vista da invocação à Musa no início do poema e em outros momentos, ou humana, em vista da atribuição tradicional do canto ao poeta Homero.Proaera-UFRJChristian WernerFundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São PauloCanazart, GabrielaWerner, Christian2018-12-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/CODEX/article/view/1928410.25187/codex.v6i2.19284CODEX -- Revista de Estudos Clássicos; v. 6, n. 2 (2018); 17-39CODEX - Revista de Estudos Clássicos; v. 6, n. 2 (2018); 17-392176-177910.25187/codex.v6i2reponame:Codex : Revista de Estudos Clássicosinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)instacron:UFRJporhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/CODEX/article/view/19284/12547/*ref*/AUER, Peter; VON ESSEN, Gesa; FRICK, Werner (Ed.).
