Resumen

This article consists of two sections. The first delimits and contextualizes the topos in question, regarding hairiness in literature. The second presents a reflection on the meanings that include the capillary appearance of three figures from the anonymous Byzantine opusculum of the XII century written in ancient Greek, Timarion. In the case of a historical period convulsed in sociocultural, political, and religious terms, literary fiction in a syncretism of elements from classical Antiquity / paganism reinvented and adapted, mutatis mutandis, in the Judeo-Christian paradigm is a necessary mask to transmit messages of Lucian nature regarding multidimensional criticism with a playful tone. The three hair domains analyzed (capillary, mandibular, anal) constitute an enigma that, after filtration, reveals multiple purposes of relevance to the Byzantine context.
