Abstract:

Balinese literature reflects numerous philosophical and spiritual concepts to live in harmony within the social and natural environment. Instead of identifying and describing the types of figurative speech, this study determined whether the figure of speech in Balinese literature reflected the education formation within Eco-cultural sustainability. Through a qualitative approach Balinese simile, metaphor, analogy, and personification found in 51 stanzas written in 7 lines to 10 lines were collected by a note-taking technique to know the dominant use of the figure of speech, characteristics, an

Abstract:

AbstractUse of rhetorical figures has been an element of persuasive speech at least since Gorgias of Leontini, for whom such deliberate deviations from ordinary literal language were a defining feature of what he called the ‘psychagogic art’. But must we consider figures of speech limited to an ornamental and merely stylistic function, as some ancient and still many modern theorists suggest? Not according to contemporary cognitive rhetoric, which proposes that figures of speech can play a fundamentally argumentative role in speech by evoking a level of shared meaning between speaker and listen

Abstract:

Poetry, a form of literature, displays varieties of language use through figures of speech, the rhetorical devices. There are two views for and against the use of such rhetorical devices in language teaching. One of the views shows its strong resentment in using such figures of speech and does not find the space of them in language teaching whereas the next speaks in favour of using them in language teaching if the texts are wisely selected. It is the judicious or creative use of figures of speech. A language teacher tries to look at them from language teaching point of view. This writing prim

Abstract:

Figures of speech are imaginative tools in both literature and ordinary communication used for explaining speech beyond its usual usage. Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights (1847) – the only novel written by this writer - differs from many other literary works due to its style, its particular use of language and figures of speech. The literary tool and figure of speech we have illustrated in the present paper is the simile. Emily Brontë uses simile as a means both to creatively and purposefully convey her thoughts and ideas to the reader and to impact him/her. The literary analysis shows that the

The aim is not to be exhaustive, but to suggest a meta-poetic orientation: On the basis of moments where authors think with figurations of painting, I want to suggest that in B

THE EUROPEAN RENAISSANCE SAW the rise of a phenomenon known as ''civil conversation,'' according to which the arena of informal speech became significant for men's social advancement.

Hutson's article uses Ben Jonson's writings to explore the tension between the prescriptions of ''virile style'' and the social reality for men of ''civil conversation.''

The Qur'an, a holy book revealed by Allah SWT, contains the rules and stories of the previous people to strengthen the truth of Islam. In these stories, there is communication between important figures of the previous people, which contains beautiful literary values so that humans easily understand them. One of them is surah al-Kahf which summarizes four important stories: Ashabul Kahf, Owner of two gardens, Musa and Khidlir, and Dzulqarnain, which contain many unusual functional sentences which show the miraculous factor of the Qur'an from a linguistic perspective. This study aimed to reveal

Abstract:

Abstract Since Aristotle, scholars have regarded similes and metaphors as equivalent figures of speech sharing very similar comprehension, interpretation and usage patterns. By analysing the use of similes in real discourse, the aim of this study is to show that these two analogical figures reflect different cognitive processes, as well as different discursive functions, using as a framework cognitive models. To this end, this work presents, first, the main differentiating features of the two figures existing in the literature. And, second, it analyses 100 natural-occurring similes in English

We shall apply the methods of lexical and semantic analysis as well as the methods used in stylistics, particularly in the theory of figures of speech (namely, Georges Molinié’s theory of macrostructural and microstructural figures of

Abstract The political campaign speeches can be used not only as platform to promote election manifestos of the candidates but also as communication channels imbued with creative manipulation of words, phrases, sayings and proverbial expressions to lure voters. Of interest in this study, is how some erudite public figures in Tanzania tend to interspace their political campaign speeches with proverbial elements. As campaign speeches aim to weaken political rivals, the use of subverted form of standard adage became inevitable on the process of waging verbal war to disarm opponents’ argumentative

Abstract This article foregrounds the importance of Paul’s letters for studying the experiences and perceptions of persons who stutter in antiquity. It analyzes Paul’s speech alongside the biographies of two other historical figures from antiquity who suffered from speech dysfluency: the great Athenian orator, Demosthenes, and the emperor Claudius. Accounts of Demosthenes’, Claudius’, and Paul’s speech inconsistencies, silences, incomprehensible utterances, oratory weaknesses—and their critics’ accusations that they suffered from madness—are interpreted in light of research on adults who stutt

Abstract:

Abstract Greetings are linguistic and cultural universals. Every language and culture has a set of formulas or social and ritual acts practiced as greetings. Although cultural practices of greeting to achieve particular social goals may vary, the act of greeting, the paradigm itself, can be examined under two communicative functions. (1) trust/safety providing and (2) the power manipulation. This study examines greetings in Turkish folk tales and figures out their socio-pragmatic dynamics based on politeness theory and speech act theory.

AbstractThis article follows the critical lines of new historicism, feminism, psychoanalysis and performance studies so as to reveal Webster’s challenge of the conventional gender roles via the binary opposites of speech and silence. Within the context of new historicism, I contend that Webster’s The Duchess of Malfi (1613–1614) comments on the corruption and abuse of absolute political power within the reign of King James I and the Catholic Church through the figures of Ferdinand (the head of the state) and the Cardinal (the head of the Church).
