Resum:
Jaume Cabré is a professional writer and a music enthusiast. He is a man with a thorough knowledge of this art and that is reflected constantly in his work. Music pervades his stories: either in his plots, his narrative structure or simply because their protagonists are musicians; but, above all, as for the presence of it is relevant to the evolution of the text. The author justifies his mastery of the musical language by means of the musicality of his words, the cadence of his sentences, his sense of rhythm, the use of the rests/silences and his stylistic resources. This dissertation intends to unravel the literary world of this writer, mainly, analyzing his works from the musical point of view, because music in Cabre’s novels and short stories is not incidental but literary essence. Our main goal is reading the author’s literary work from the musical perspective, matching the particular tools for analysis of both disciplines and set it into the cultural framework –literary, musical, philosophical... artistic in general- of the author.
