Previous issue date: 2006-02-24 / This work aims at analysing the Anglo-American poet and essayist Thomas Stearns Eliot s use of intertextuality in his poem The Waste Land, published in 1922.Our analysis focuses on myth and its function within the poem. We have chosen four myths, three of them Pagan (Sibila, Tiresias and The Fisher King) and one Christian (The Holy Grail). The latter has a deep relationship to The Fisher King myth. We will mention theoretical concepts referring to intertextuality and myth and will present a survey of the poem as a whole. We will also report form briefly on the political-social situation of Europe at the time in which the poem was written, and the poet s main achievements in his career. Our next focus will be the analysis of the above mentioned myths as well as their function and relevance within the context of the poem. / O presente trabalho tem por objetivo analisar a intertextualidade no poema The Waste Land, do poeta e ensaísta anglo-americano Thomas Stearns Eliot, publicado em 1922. Focaliza o mito e sua função dentro do poema. Foram escolhidos particularmente quatro mitos, três pagãos (Sibila, Tirésias e Rei Pescador) e um cristão (Santo Graal), sendo que este último tem uma relação estreita com o mito do Rei Pescador. Examinar-se-ão postulados teóricos sobre o mito, a intertextualidade e a situação político-social da Europa, na época em que Eliot compôs o poema, bem como da trajetória do poeta.
