TRADUÇÃO DO LIVRO III DO PRIMEIRO MITÓGRAFO DO VATICANO

Abstract

This work consists of a translation of Book III, by the First Vatican Mythographer, into Portuguese. The First Mythographer is one of three anonymous authors who are part of the group known as the Vatican Mythographers, whose works were discovered by Angel o Mai in 1831. The work of the First Mythographer, located between the last decades of the 9th century and the end of the century XI, is a mythographic compilation reinterpreted from a Christian perspective during the Middle Ages. The proposed translation is accompanied by some notes and a study of the work, highlighting the sources used by the mythographer, the manuscript and the editions. Keywords: Vatican Mythographers; First Mythographer; Translation.
