THE COMMUNICATIVE BEHAVIOUR OF THE INITIATOR OF RECONCILIATION: LINGUOSTYLISTIC ASPECT OF RESEARCH

Abstract

The focus of this article is to explore the linguo-stylistic features of the utterances representing the communicative behaviour of the interlocutor who initiates reconciliation. It has been determined that in the process of resolving conflict the initiator of reconciliation uses such stylistic devices as nominative metaphors, zoomorphic metaphors, metaphors of action, metaphors of process, similes, hyperboles, repetitions, amplification, rhetorical questions, rhetorical exclamations and parcellation. These linguo-stylistic devices are effective means of persuasive influence.
