Dissertação (Mestrado em História) - Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, 2013.http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/tede/handle/tede/3283Héracles is a very well known character of mythological narratives, its fame hasn’t been limited by the antiquity, even with all its popularity, it isn’t possible to define the mythological origin of this mythological hero. This research was limited to the understanding of how Heracles’ representation was used during the tragedies of the classic period. In order to accomplish it, the following data and pieces of work were used: Alcestis e Héracles de Euripides, e The Trachiniae e Philoctetes de Sóphocles - one of the few tragedies that were conserved along the time, using the image of this hero. This study points out the relevance of the tragic presentation activeness, its relation with the polis, as well as with the hero (representative of the political community), accomplishes, when it comes to its divine nature, the integration of social roles in a moment of war between the polis.application/pdfAcesso AbertoHéraclesTragédiaEurípidesSófoclesHeróiHéraclesTragedyEuripidesSophoclesCIENCIAS HUMANAS::HISTORIADissertação
