We will base our study on French semiotics, also known as greimasian semiotics, to analyze the effects of meaning created by the different actantial roles played by the narrator, Humbert Humbert, in the novel and the strategies used in the filmic discourses to create the same effects in certain sequences in order to honor the original work or, on the contrary, to create different effects in order to revise it in some aspects, adapting it to their target audience, which was different from the one which had only had contact with the book because they lived in a different time and had expectations of how the movies would treat controversial subject matters that had been raised in the novel. / Esta dissertação analisará a relação entre o romance Lolita (1955), de Vladimir Nabokov, e as adaptações fílmicas, de Stanley Kubrick, de 1962, e de Adrian Lyne, de 1997. Tendo por base a teoria da semiótica de linha francesa, também conhecida como semiótica greimasiana, para tratar dos efeitos de sentido gerados pelos diferentes papéis actanciais que o narrador Humbert Humbert assume no romance e das estratégias utilizadas no discurso fílmico a fim de criar os mesmos efeitos e reverenciar a obra de base em determinadas sequências ou, pelo contrário, com o objetivo de criar efeitos diferentes como forma de revisar o texto de origem em alguns aspectos, adequando-o ao público-alvo da produção fílmica, cujo perfil é diferente devido à época em que viveram e às expectativas que tinham a respeito do modo como os filmes tratariam o tema polêmico do romance.
