Abstract

La presencia cotidiana de la muerte en la Edad Media ha dado lugar a numerosas representaciones culturales, muchas de ellas convertidas en tópicos extendidos por todo el Occidente cristiano. De todas las formas de muerte deseada, el suicidio es el acto mortal intencionado con un menor reflejo en la literatura medieval. A diferencia de los obsidionales, ejemplo trágico de defensa de la identidad colectiva valorado en la Antigüedad, los suicidios individuales se consideran un caso especial y reprobable de asesinato, que permanece innominado hasta el s. XVII. Tras considerar la esencia de la muerte voluntaria, el presente artículo estudia tres tipos ejemplares en las traducciones artúricas, de causa y condición diferente, que permiten concluir una falta de uniformidad en la percepción medieval del acto y del agente suicida. Debido a su naturaleza, la literatura caballeresca refleja escasos episodios, aunque estos se encuentran llenos de intención didáctica y de un sentido relacionado con la concepción del linaje.
