The Origins of Stylistics: Aristotle and the Art of Rhetoric
Aristotle’s (384-322

BC) five canons of rhetoric: 1) the textual material is generated; 2) ordered for optimal effect; 3) stylised; 4) memorised; 5)delivered.
Stylisation (clarity and appropriateness + style figures: “schemes” and “tropes”)

The Origins of Modern Stylistics
19th century – literary criticism – the

focus on the AUTHOR - ethos
1910-1920s – linguistic analysis/stylistics - Russian formalists (Roman Jakobson, Viktor Shklovsky, Vladimir Propp) + 1930s – the Prague School (Roman Jakobson, Nikolai Trubetzkoy, Rene Wellek, Vilem Mathesius –TEXT+CONTEXT- logos+ethos
1990s - decoding stylistics (Irina Arnold)– pragmatic aspect – THE READER - pathos

Слайд 10

The Origins of Modern Stylistics: Jacobson-the Prague Structuralists
the foregrounding theory: some

parts of text have more effect on the reader because the textual parts are linguistically deviant, thus psychologically salient for readers:
“The brief respite (interval of relief) was over; all my anxieties came back. I was once more a doubting, disconcerted, depressed creature when I rose to say good-by.” [W.Collins, The Law and the Lady, p.63]

Слайд 11

Stylistician = Sherlock Holmes
“A stylistician – a person who with his/her

knowledge of the workings of
morphology
phonology
lexis
syntax
semantics
discourse and pragmatic models
goes in search of language-based evidence to support or challenge the subjective interpretations of critics”
[Burke 2014, p.2]

Слайд 12

Compare: examples
“You’d better believe I like hamburgers!”
“Don’t you think hamburgers are

just fabulous?”
“My gastronomic preferences include, but are not limited to, that peculiarly American version of sandwich known as hamburger. ”

Слайд 13

A stylistician deals with
Grammar and Word Choice - tools
Rhetoric – utilising

the tools to render a particular emotional effect

Слайд 14

Approaches to Stylistics
gender (gender concerns)
multimodal (multi-semiotic modes – film narrative)
neuroscientific (patterns

in human emotion)
corpus (the use of corpora)
critical (ideology)
cognitive (an author’s idiolect through the analysis features of mental bahavious)
pedagogical (teaching language)
pragmatic (speech acts, socio-cultural information)

Слайд 15

Style
a historical period
a literary movement
an individual writer
a particular book
a certain type

of text
a certain type of sentence

Слайд 16

Style – 18th century
“Writing well consists of thinking, feeling and expressing

well, of clarity of mind, soul and taste…The style is the man himself.”
[Leclerc, French naturalist, 1707-1788]

Слайд 17

Style – 20th century – writer’s approach
“Young writers often suppose that

style is a garnish (a decoration) for the meat of prose, a sauce by which a dull dish is made palatable. Style has no separate entity, it is nondetachable, unfilterable.”
[White E.B., Strunk W., The Elements of Style, 1959]

Слайд 18

Style – 20th century – linguist’s approach
“Style is a system of

interrelated language means which serves a definite aim in communication.”
[Galperin 1971, p.18]

Слайд 19

Subject Matter of Stylistics
the inventory of the special language means that

secure the desirable effect of the utterance
different types of texts (written in a certain functional style) which can be distinguished due to the choice and arrangement of language means employed

Слайд 20

Type of Text - Functional Style?

Слайд 21

Type of Text - Functional Style?
The day was enticingly (temptingly) beautiful,

and the tide was on the ebb (the flowing back of the tide from high to low water or the period in which this takes place).

Слайд 22

Type of Text - Functional Style?
Stylistics is a subject to be

enjoyed. You should not lose sight of this fact when you are reading the chapters in this volume and writing your own analyses. Stylistics is going places and now is the time for you to get on board. It is a welcoming guest in many intellectual homes in many locations across disciplines such as communication studies, rhetoric, pragmatics, discourse analysis, applied linguistics, literary studies, film, television and theatre studies, museum studies and so on.
