This article investigates the presence of the utopia of the Divine, originated in the Calabrian abbot Joachim of Fiore's (1135-1202) philosophical work, in the novel A Pedra do Reino (The Stone of the Kingdom), by the Brazilian novelist Ariano Suassuna. Joachimite thought can be located in two of the novel's characteristic elements. The first regards the use of the same symbolic hermeneutic per concordiam (by harmony). The second regards the theory of the three states of the world and the utopia of the Divine, as found in the first and last parts of the novel's plot. KEYWORDS: Joachim of Fiore, symbolic hermeneutic, utopia of the Divine, Ariano Suassuna
