Epopeia e poesia bucólica no Idílio XI de Teócrito

Fernando Rodrigues Júnior

Resumo


Abstract: This paper discusses the relation between bucolic and epic poetry. Both genres shared the same meter – hexameter – and Theocritus was considered a poet influenced by Homer and belonging to epic tradition. In some sense it is possible to find bucolic elements in epic poetry, not only in similes in which there are shepherds in a variety of situations, but also in characters such as Polyphemus. Through the analysis of Polyphemus’ pastoral way of life in Odyssey a link is created between Theocritus’ idylls and Homeric narrative in order to distinguish bucolic poetry as a kind of epic poetry.

Keywords: Theocritus; Homer; Odyssey; bucolic poetry; Polyphemus; Galatea.
