Liévin: o romance transfigura a vida

Abstract

This work aims to analyze the importance of the character Liévin in the novel Anna Kariênina by the Russian author Liev Tolstoy. The methodology used was bibliographic research. To substantiate the research and understand the relevance of the character and of likelihood, we used the studies on the fictional character presented by Candido (1964), Forster (2005) and others. To contextualize the life of the author and the character Liévin in the novel Anna Kariênina (1877), we sought data on the life of Tolstoy, in the biography written by Bartlett (2013) as well as the relations with the novel itself in the work. In addition, to broaden the understanding of the research was studied Candido (1980) that relates text and context.
