Through a comparative approach, the authors explore how archetypal characters are formed, the influence of demonstrative rhetoric, and the relationship between literature and other arts such as painting, sculpture, and film. The reader will find a rigorous study that connects classical tradition with modern reworkings, unveiling the mechanisms that bring great characters to life and the crises that define their journeys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is structured into two major thematic axes that intertwine. On the one hand, it addresses the \u003cstrong\u003eliterary portrait\u003c\/strong\u003e from a historical and theoretical perspective, analyzing how demonstrative rhetoric has influenced the creation of universal characters and genres such as biography and autobiography. It examines the reciprocal influence between literature and other artistic disciplines, showing how the portrait transcends the written text.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the other hand, it delves into the theme of \u003cstrong\u003estorms and shipwrecks\u003c\/strong\u003e as a metaphor for existential crisis and a turning point for travelers and protagonists. This motif is studied in its symbolic and narrative dimension, revealing how the storm acts as a catalyst for transformations and conflicts in the literature of different eras. The work connects both themes to offer a comprehensive view of the reworking of these topics throughout literary history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction of the literary portrait and formation of archetypal characters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eInfluence of demonstrative rhetoric on the characterization of literary figures.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationships between literature and other arts (painting, sculpture, film) in the representation of the portrait.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eShipwreck and storm as motifs of narrative crisis and transformation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eReworking of classical topics in modern and contemporary literature.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at researchers, teachers, and students of philology, comparative literature, and literary theory.
