1. Relation of Stylistics to Other Linguistic Disciplines
Stylistics and style are closely connected with the communicative aspect of language, with the problem of its usage, functioning. A style of language is a system of interrelated language means which serves a definite aim in communication. The following styles are distinguished within the English literary language: a) the belles-lettres style, b) the publicistic style, c) the newspaper style, d) the scientific prose style, e) the style of official documents. Each style of language is characterized by a number of individual features.
Stylistics is the study of the nature, functions and structure of expressive means
and stylistic devices, on the one hand, and, on the other, the study of each style of language as mentioned above. A course in stylistics will benefit those who have a sound linguistic background. The expressive means of English and the stylistic devices used in the literary language can only be understood when a thorough knowledge of the phonetic, grammatical and lexical data of the given language has been attained. The expressive means and stylistic devices must be observed and interpreted on different levels: on the phonetic, morphemic, lexical, syntactical levels and on the utterance level. If a thorough command of language data has not been acquired, the subtleties of the theory of stylistics and its communicative value may escape the student or may prove to be beyond his grasp.
