RESUMO
The purpose of the present dissertation is the study of the poetry of Murilo Mendes, more specifically, his apocalyptic poetry, from which we chose five books: Poemas (1930), O Visionário (1941), Tempo e Eternidade (1935), Os Quatro Elementos (1945) and A Poesia em Pânico (1937). Thus, to accomplish it, we prepared six chapters: "Study for a Chaos" which presents the theoretical foundations of the theme that guide our reflection - the apocalypse. Following, "The Cosmic Shock of Desire" analyses the end-of-the-world metaphors, which poetise the erotic love of Poemas and O Visionário. The chapter dedicated to Tempo e Eternidade is called "The Restauration of the Poetry of the End" and is aimed at evincing the inter-relations between Ismael Nery s "essencialismo", the French Surrealism, and John s biblical Apocalipse. "A Divine Delirium" studies Os Quatro Elementos, in which poetry is conceived as the result of God s violent action in the world. The last chapter of analysis, "The Circles of Hell", approaches A Poesia em Pânico and observes the poetic construction of a personal apocalypse. Concluding, "Future Poet" attempts at systemizing the analysis of four visions of the end created by Murilo Mendes, who overturns the apocalyptic imaginary with the intention of creating a universe of his own, with personal truths expressed in authentic images
