The Noble Outlaw or Krafkerl is the main hero of many of the masterpieces belonging to the Sturm und Drang and the early romantic period, but whereas this character is easily recognisable within German literature, he is not so in Italian literature, or at least, many pages thereof have never been studied with this character in mind. An excellent example is given by Vittorio Alfieri's Saul. This tragedy bases itself on the biblical story of the Hebrew king (I Samuel , 8--31), but focuses on the last hours of the protagonist, which makes it very difficult to identify Saul as a Krafkerl. Yet this is exactly the purpose of our study, which will begin by examining the critical history of the main character spanning nearly two centuries, then give the main characteristics of the Noble Outlaw as he appears in German literature, and conclude by showing how the character of Alfieri's Saul meets the profile of this protoromantic hero type; all this to strengthen the historical, albeit totally coincidental ties that bind Alfieri to his contemporaries of the Sturm und Drang preestablished at the beginning of our century by Benedetto Croce.

Vittorio Alfieri (1749-1803) usava nel creare le sue tragedie un piano particolare: dapprima 'ideava', cioè fissava rapidamente la struttura dell'opera; in seguito, 'stendeva', e metteva su carta tutto ciò che gli passava per la mente, in prosa, con impeto e furore; in ultimo, 'verseggiava', ed ogni pensiero veniva cambiato in endecasillabi, ed attentamente limava tutte le imperfezioni: nasceva così la tragedia.

Esta tragédia revela inquietações artísticas e particularidades linguísticas que refletem o período que antecede o Risorgimento, tanto no âmbito político quanto no que se refere à cultura e ao idioma italiano. A presente dissertação apresenta também um perfil biográfico de Vittorio Alfieri, autor até o momento pouco conhecido no Brasil, a partir de estudo de sua autobiografia e de estudos publicados na Itália sobre sua obra e seu envolvimento com movimentos políticos que culminaram na Revolução Francesa / Abstract: this work consists on a translation of the play Antigone, by the Italian tragedy writer Vittorio Alfieri. The play was written in 1776 in Florence, Italy. This tragedy reveals artistic concerns and linguistic particularities that reflect the period of time that precedes the Risorgimento, both in a political extent as in where the Italian culture and language is concerned. The present dissertation presents also a biographic profile of Vittorio Alfieri, author until this moment little known in Brazil, based on the study of his autobiography and texts published in Italy about the author's work and involvement in political movements that led to the French Revolution / Mestrado / Teoria e Critica Literaria / Mestra em Teoria e História Literária
