The corpus of this paper seeks to analyze the nature of the multiple voices which can be heard through the characters speeches in the five short stories in Anecdotes of Destiny by Karen Blixen. Each voice may represent one or more possibilities of expression such as the autobiographical, the symbolic, or even the statutory voice, by revealing meanings and intonations according to the characters changeable positions within the plots. Such voices can not be considered as consequences of the proposed conflicts; instead, they determine the tensions through which the stories evolve. This study is based on Mikhail Bakhtin s postulates in reference to the theory of dialogism, which in the case of the present paper, were transferred to the short story, a hybrid genre whose origin derives from the tales passed on through the generations by oral transmission. In the specific case of Karen Blixen s short stories, the study of the voices is linked to the own genesis of tales as oral narratives, which were passed to written form by keeping certain characteristics of the archetypical voices, which can be heard individually, or simultaneously superimposed, in a heteroglossical harmony capable of generating multiple meanings.
