Course content
The purpose of the discipline is to teach students a stylistic approach to the use of units of speech, to deepen their knowledge of practical and theoretical courses of the English language and to direct them to the stylistic analysis of textual material. The main aim of the discipline is to study the stylistic resources of language, stylistic norms, systematize knowledge about the variability of language depending on the sphere of its use. The study of stylistics deepens, generalizes and systematizes students' knowledge of language and prepares students to conduct their own linguistic research. The discipline ends with an exam at the end of the term.
