A vida para além da morte: o mundo dos mortos na narrativa do canto VI da Eneida. 2019. 143f. Dissertação (Mestrado em História) - Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2019.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/jspui/handle/123456789/28276Virgil’s work has been analyzed for countless historians. His most notable book, Aeneid, is a high point in Latin literature, in a period known as the Golden Age of the poets. However, beyond its funcion in literature, Aeneid also show us some important conceptions to the roman culture, politics and religion in the 1 st century B.C. This research aims to analyze the space inhabited by the romans dead in the Aeneid’s cantus VI, seeking to understand the function of this space to the narrative and the relation with the roman imaginary about the afterlife. Our goal is to analyze how Virgil builds that imaginary space with narrative elements and aligns Aeneia’s journey through the Orco with the roman mortuary culture in the 1 st century B.C. The roman funeral pratices are also a study object in order to support our analysis. The methodology used in this research is the speech analysis, specifically the method of narrative totalities, in which all narrative encircles the central theme and the structure narrative feed this central idea. After that, logical bases are created to support the plot and the outcome of the story. The author is inspired on the real and draws the elements which follow a logical narrative line to create his story.Acesso AbertoRomaImaginárioEspaçoMorteEneidamasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::HISTORIA
