Abstract

In this work various texts of the writer Liset Lantigua were analyzed in order to highlight her repeated use of the image, and it was demonstrated the aesthetic dimension that the poetic language gives a work of children's and youth’s literature, when it is used in it. Through the use of some of the tools of poetic analysis provided by the author, and on the basis of the theoretical perspective of semiotic analysis offered by the critic Jean Cohen, the works of lyrical infant-juvenile were explored: En tus ojos, Sintigo, Lo que quería decirte y Ahora que somos invisibles, and the narrative works Las primeras ballenas y Contigo en la Luna of the mentioned writer. Within the corpus chosen attained images were studied through the use of the "traveling qualities ", "synesthesia", "signs", visionary images and symbols and it was possible to notice how through this "deflection" as Cohen calls these ruptures of the language code, and the subsequent reduction of the same, the poetic expression won in intensity being capable of touching its receiver.
