Sumario:This This article deals with the religious and theological representations that the literary fiction of Star Wars has, highlighting the iconic figure of the Jedi and Siths, concerning the use of Force. Due to the literary extensibility that the saga has, the assumptions of Daniel Wallace, known as the Jedi Way and the book of the Sith delimited the theme from now on, raising the possible representations of religious and theological character that this literature has. From the expected results, it could be seen that the epistemic that appears in this literary saga, by its agents, Jedis and Siths, their actions denote relations strictly linked to the dichotomous universe of religions, and that feature different representations of the religious and consequently theological field.
