WASTE AND MYTHIC PASSION LOVE IN SADDLE AND ISOLDA

Abstract

This article is based on Joseph Bédier's Romance of Tristan and Isolde. The work was published in 1900, however it retakes versions of the medieval. The aim is to demonstrate that, in this way, the author reconstructs the previous versions, since it does so from historical and cultural elements. The Residuality Theory was coined and systematized by Roberto Pontes based on concepts formulated by the École des Annales, Raymond Williams, Peter Burke, James D. Dana, among others. Such a theory concerns elements of the past taken up in the present. In addition, we seek to glimpse a look at the mythical love-passion that permeates the characters, as such feeling functions as a residual element throughout the narrative.
