As vestes fictícias da história

Abstract

The narratives that helped shape history belonging senses, since antiquity, since the epic poetry have configured archetypes and rules which then established the invention of historical novel. The traditional model has been modified to the extent that the values that motivate are transformed, giving rise to new historical novel, which undoes the sacredness of the historical hero and proposes new versions of thematised historical events. In this trial, we sought to study the evolution of the model and how the new historical romance set in contemporary works.
