Este estudo aborda a representação da sexualidade de Alexandre no cinema,
mais especificamente nos filmes de Rossen (1956) e de Stone (2004). Partindo da vida
plutarquiana, os argumentos filmados não prescindiram contudo de elementos referidos
por outras fontes antigas, adaptando os enredos ao gosto e interesses das épocas que os
produziram. Depois de uma análise do papel das figuras femininas na vida de Alexandre,
faz‑se o estudo da presença de personagens masculinas e das relações erótico‑amorosas
que mantiveram com o general macedónio, concluindo‑se que, apesar de a problemática
do amor e da sexualidade não ser um tema maior nas biografias antigas de Alexandre,
as leituras modernas da vida do general não prescindiram do tema, variando as leituras
e representações com o gosto das audiências contemporâneas.
This paper studies Alexander’s sexuality representation in the cinema, more specifically in the films by Rossen (1956) and Stone (2004). Based on the Plutarchian Life of Alexander, these movies did not yet renounce to elements mentioned by other ancient sources, adapting the plots to the taste and interests of the times that produced them. Thus, after a review of the role of the women in the life of Alexander, the author also studies the presence of the male characters and the erotic‑amorous relationships the Macedonian general kept with them. Despite Love and Sexuality are not major themes in ancient biog‑ raphies of Alexander, modern readings of the general’s life did not renounce to the issue, by making readings and representations according to the tastes of contemporary audiences.
