O ano da catábase de Ricardo Reis Um topos homérico no romance de José Saramago

View through CrossRef
In José Saramago's work there are frequent allusions to Classical themes, arising from his thorough knowledge of the ancient works, but also influenced by the "popular repertoire" Saramago liked so much. However, The Year of the Death of Ricardo Reis is more than a mere quote. The reader will witness a conscious or unconscious reworking of one of the most famous Greek topoi, the Homerian Katabasis, a descent into Hell. In 1936 Lisbon, Ricardo Reis, like Ulysses, discovers the "truth".
