Abstract

Do Rei ao marginalizado, a floresta terá sido utilizada pelos mais diversos grupos que compunham a sociedade medieval. Como espaço importante, dela a população obtém recursos animais e vegetais, é palco do exercicio da caça, porém, é igualmente um local perigoso, por onde deambulam indivíduos que se encontram à margem da sociedade, e que podem atacar e saquear quem por nela viaja. Este medo encontra-se igualmente associado a um outro tipo de receio – o sobrenatural. É na floresta que se dão os encontros com seres maravilhosos, que encontramos presentes nos mais diversos textos literários da Idade Média.

Através da leitura e análise de fontes literárias inglesas, procura-se analisar as duas dimensões da floresta medieval – o real e o imaginário. E, assim, compreender a relação da população com este espaço, com os seus ocupantes e com os seres que compõem o mundo do sobrenatural. Ao mesmo tempo, com foco na cultura popular e na análise e compreensão da mentalidade dos indivíduos dos séculos XII e XIII.
