Summary/Abstract: The “individuation” of literary characters and the styling of the narrative text. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that the author, which is also the character of the Romanian novel, Rusoaica, namely Gib I. Mihaescu, individualizes both his masculine and feminine characters, through the dynamic of their corporality. The characters’ corporality is stylized (by different stylistic and rhetorical procedures), so that the descriptive fragments portraying the human body (in movement or static) confer a high aesthetic sense to the entire narrative text.
