O Quinze pelo olhar de Poty Lazzarotto

Abstract

This article presents a reflection about Poty Lazzarotto‘s illustrations to the novel O Quinze, by Rachel de Queiroz. Hence, the illustrator‘s perspective leads our analysis, which has as focus the narrative plan of Chico Bento and Cordulina‘s family. The theoretical-bibliographic methodology is based on authors interested in studying the illustration present in the literary text, for instance: Lima (1985), Linden (2011), Nikolajeva and Scott (2011), Pereira (2009), Nunes (2015), among others. From the collation between word and image, we discuss how illustration is capable of reframing the written text. Therefore, the visual image consists of a new form of rewriting that also conducts to a narrativity and helps to give a new meaning to the literary.
