Summary/Abstract: It is said and believed, in up to date studies, that the “kutelian” literature (especially the prose) is structured as modern literature. One of the features of which is the presence in its stylistic composition, of some phenomena and aspects of orality. In fact, it is only mentioned this feature, because in reality, our studies on orality have been and still are incomplete. Even in this author’s case, treating him as a modern prose author, has conditioned the study of orality not only as a point of view, but even as a pragmatic way of investigating these texts’ compositions. Studying for a long time the narrative texts of Kuteli, I’ve come to the conclusion that the axis of orality (agreeing that his work is not only multidimensional, but multi-axial too) it is even more essential and inherent than we could have noticed until now. There are many testimonies to prove this hypothesis and our work takes on to investigate them.
