| Abstract | |
Perceiving the great importance of the moor element in Portuguese culture and emphasizing the significance of introducing this cultural and religious alterity in order to reflect about the cultural immanence, we search, in this thesis, to analyze the diverse figurations of the moors in canonical literary works. We used, for that, fictional texts of historical type, focusing the attention in the literary work of Alexandre Herculano, but also considering the legendary origin of this theme and some of its major significant coincidences in the contemporaneity.
