Revista Territórios e Fronteiras, Cuiabá, v. 6, n. 1, p. 3-17, jan./jun. 2013.1984-9036http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/13346Aurelius Prudentius Clemens wrote Psychomachia in fourth century AD. In this work, appropriated some com- mon characteristics the epic genre to produce an particular epic, in which virtues and vices anthropomorphized battle it out for dominance of the hu- man soul. Becomes interesting to see how this author selects some charac- teristics to generate an epic work of proselytizing character.porAcesso AbertoAntiguidade tardiaPrudêncioRetóricaPrudentiusRhetoricLate antiquityCânones retóricos cristãos e pagãos: Prudêncio e as batalhas entre vícios e virtudes na alma humanaCanons rhetorically christians and pagans: Prudentius and vices and virtues battles of the human soulArtigo10.22228/rt-f.v6i1.189
