dc.description.abstractBased on Ernst H. Kantorowicz’s thesis of the King’s two bodies, witch separates the monarch politic, symbolic and immortal body of the natural and mortal, the authors discuss the iconic role of Alexander of Macedonia representations in the Visual Arts between the 16th and 18th centuries. They demonstrate how, in the considered time frame, the figure of Alexander embodied the qualities attributed by the political literature to the ideal King since the Late Middle Ages. The identification of Alexander with the figure of the ideal King led to a recurrent presence of the episodes of his life, as recounted by Plutarch in the Parallel Lives and by other ancient authors, in painting and tapestry, in which they were represented with a clear propagandistic intent of affirmation of the royal power.eng
dc.description.abstractA partir da tese dos dois corpos do rei de Ernst H. Kantorowicz, que separa o corpo político, simbólico e imortal do monarca do seu corpo natural e mortal, os autores analisam a função icónica das representações de Alexandre da Macedónia nas artes visuais entre os séculos XVI e XVIII. Demonstram como no período considerado, a figura de Alexandre personificou as qualidades atribuídas pela literatura política, desde o final da Idade Média, ao rei ideal. A identificação de Alexandre com a figura do rei ideal levou a que os episódios da sua vida, tal como foram narrados por Plutarco nas Vidas Paralelas e por outros autores da Antiguidade, tenham sido temas recorrentes na pintura e na tapeçaria, representados com uma clara intenção propagandística de afirmação do poder real.por
