| description | Based on the concepts of distribution of the sensible (Rancière) and the reception of antiquity, the article analyzes a political cartoon that depicts Karl Marx, at that time editor of the newspaper Rheinische Zeitung, as the mythical figure of the Titan Prometheus. The text examines how the cartoon was produced as a critique of the Prussian censorship code, addressing the meaning of the cartoon's elements re-signified in the Greek mythical narrative. It is discussed how antiquity is appropriated as a rhetorical element by the cartoonist and how it is possible to approach the theme of the reception of antiquity in caricatures. |

A partir dos conceitos de partilha do sensível (Rancière) e da recepção da antiguidade, o artigo analisa uma charge política que representa Karl Marx, nessa época editor do jornal Rheinische Zeitung, como a figura mítica do Titã Prometeu. O texto examina como a charge foi produzida como crítica ao código de censura prussiano, abordando o significado dos elementos da charge ressignificados na narrativa mítica grega. Discute-se como a antiguidade é apropriada como um elemento retórico pelo chargista e como é possível abordar o tema da recepção da antiguidade nas caricaturas.
