Seis propostas deste milênio: as ideias de Calvino aplicadas na obra de Adriana Lisboa

Abstract

According to the writer Italo Calvino, lightness, quickness, exactitude, visibility, multiplicity and consistency are six values that just literature can save — this theory is on the book Six memos for the next millennium. This work, which promotes a meeting with the stylistics, textual linguistics and cognitive linguistics, wants to justify the significance on the use of the linguistic-stylistic proposals presented by Calvino in the production of a literary work, taking as object of study and exemplify the tale Lady Anne, by Adriana Lisboa. Besides this main objective, this paper presented a detailed stylistic analysis of the tale, providing information about the literary style of this writer from contemporary Brazilian literature.
