Summary/Abstract: In Corinna Bille’s fantastic novels, the figure of syllepsis enhances the concomitant expression of different categories in order to view a hybrid being whose reference is exclusively literal. Obviously syncretic, the syllepsis emphasizes the ambiguity of fantastic aesthetics and involves the reader in a process of co-creation, making the unspeakable creatures tangible, creatures built up through the realization of a visual poiesis resorting to a semiotic perception.
