description This paper presents an analysis of peace as a literary theme within the framework of Eighteenth-century epic composition. From the perspective of genology, thematology and classicist aesthetics, the theme of peace will be studied as an element that alters the traditional form of the genre. In order to identify this new form, the origins of peaceful discourses between politics and literature are first sketched by the European humanists. With these considerations, the study approaches the eighteenth-century poetic production with a reconfigured idea of the epic genre and with a critical ideology of both political and theological discourses in favour of peace whose reception is identified as a ‘New Humanism’ or ‘Enlightened Humanism’. We will conclude that these elements are present in the heroic lyric of the century and, especially, in the thought of Juan Pablo Forner.
