Abstract
Amado Alonso is a brilliant philologist in the full sense of the word – a linguist, literary critic and translator who left in all three domains a notable intellectual heritage for the Hispanic world. His “Letter on Stylistics” and his overall multilateral activity as a researcher, academic and editor are a strong evidence of his unlimited dedication to philology, wholehearted commitment to Hispanism and outstanding intuition regarding the determining function of Linguistic Stylistics as a methodology basis for Literary Analysis. The said letter draws our attention as it states the tasks facing the science of style and it outlines, in the 40’s of the XX century, the relationship between Linguistic Stylistics and Literary Criticism.
Key words: philology, Stylistics, Linguistic Stylistics, Literary Criticism, Hispanic studies
