Unlocking the Power of Speech in Literature

This article explores the means of expression of speech in literary texts, focusing on the stylistic traits as described by both foreign and domestic linguists. The primary qualities of literary texts are examined through the theoretical works of V.V. Vinogradov, I.P. Galperin, I.V. Arnold, L.S. Barkhudarov, and V.N. Komissarov. Current theories lack comprehensive analysis of the dynamic interplay between language resources and stylistic devices in literary texts. The aim of this research is to define and analyze the stylistic devices used in literary texts and their role in creating artistic expression. Methods include analysis and synthesis of theoretical material and literature review. Results highlight the unique structural elements and functional styles of artistic texts, emphasizing the integral role of the author's image and the cohesive structure of narrative elements. These findings enhance understanding of the aesthetic and cognitive functions of literary style and offer insights into the application of stylistic devices in literary analysis. The study suggests further research into the applicability of these models across different literary genres and languages.
