Linguistic Features of Artistic Discourse: A Study of Aesthetic and Poetic Functions
Main Article Content
Abstract
The linguistic characteristics of creative discourse are examined in this essay, with an emphasis on the poetic and artistic purposes of language.In contrast to strictly pragmatic or informative communication, artistic discourse is focused on expressive beauty, artistry, and emotional impact.The poetry function emphasizes the form of language itself, stressing tone, rhythm, parallelism, and stylistic devices, whereas the aesthetic function seeks to create harmony, imagery, and evaluative nuance. The essay explores how the category of artistry appears in literary works, explains its primary linguistic characteristics, and lays forth the theoretical underpinnings of artistic discourse.The article highlights how crucial it is to combine literary aesthetics and linguistic study in order to fully comprehend the expressive potential of artistic language.
