Sumario:Cyril Connolly’s heterogeneous textual production, with its thematic, stylistic and formal variety, is set in the ways of essays; proteinic form- its generic conception is- can be considered a privilegedspace of tensions. In the essay the critic is confused with the writer and vice versa, and his relations with reading- which turns into writing– the communication of a statute of truth, value andexperience, turns problematic, as it doesn’t agree with the academically supported protocols of theory. Hybrid genre, free way and hardly restrictive, is presented as able for the unfolding writingin multiple levels; thus, applies its critic function by creativity means, no longer of theoretical application: aesthetic language, as long as literature candidate, and language of experience, asemphasis of partial, the essay is, in Connolly’s work, a scenery to be weaved as a character: a man of letters and his tastes.
