Open-access The Tamoio Confederacy, Exemplary Epic

AuthorshipSCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

This article proposes an analysis of the epic poem The Tamoio Confederacy, claiming that Magalhães' conception of the epic genre is in accordance with his own poetic program and with epic models not properly considered in the polemics about his work. Therefore, it aims to show how the poem dialogues with precepts of the epic of the past while guiding future discussions on the genre.

Keywords:
Gonçalves de Magalhães; epic poetry; classical literature
