Resumo(s)
A ideia de «vazio» parece estar presente na cultura grega praticamente desde
o seu início. Com efeito, se atendermos ao fato de os poemas homéricos e
a obra atribuída a Hesíodo serem os mais antigos testemunhos literários
conhecidos da cultura dos gregos, então, parece-nos mais do que evidente
que a ideia de «caos» e de desordem ou ataxia foi objeto de reflexão por
parte dos poetas desde pelo menos o século VIII a.C. Este ensaio pretende
analisar três casos da mitologia em que essas ideias parecem o tema de
base que os estrutura: os mitos da Gigantomaquia, da Centauromaquia e
da Amazonomaquia.
