For a long time, Stylistics was considered a discipline akin to Rhetoric, being responsible for the study of figures of speech existing in literary texts. This reduced idea was extended, because, today, style is considered forms of expression in different enunciative contexts. Thus, its importance for discourse studies, because each gender has specific linguistic usages that generate different meaning effects. In the case of literary discourse, researchers are faced with the question of form, of expressiveness and of individuation of speech, so they try to investigate the expressive effects obtained through stylistic uses. If the study of the style of a particular period in literature became important because there were groups of writers with very similar stylistic features that revealed their artistic ideals, currently, there is a great stylistic diversity, which makes it difficult to work with the style of a period and “opens the door” to a more plural analysis, which tries to identify the stylistic uses of each author, of the various groups that appear simultaneously in postmodernity with distinct objectives. Thus, this article aims to investigate, drawing on Stylistics, how it is possible to study the meaning effects obtained in contemporary literary discourse.
