Linguistic creative features of public speech of representatives of ohe British monarchy (based on the speeches Of Queen Elizabeth II)

Abstract

). The article examines the ecolinguistic features of public speeches of the British monarchy, in particular the creative discursive personality of Queen Elizabeth II. The specifics of the relationship between individual creative intentions and the social context is considered to be a relevant issue in ecolinguistics. The aim of the study is to characterize the use of creative means – lexical, stylistic and discursive, verbal and non-verbal, inherent in the speech of Queen Elizabeth II, and, thus, to determine the linguo-creativity characteristics of public speeches of the British monarchy. From an ecological point of view, the linguo-creativity of discursive personalities is manifested in their creative activities and specifically expressed in the dialogical process. For the analysis of communication, an interdisciplinary methodology was used as a basis, in the format of which a creative personality of Queen Elizabeth with her own stable system of socially significant features, own communicative style acts to create spiritual values. The individuality of Queen Elizabeth II's linguistic style lies in its socio-psychological, aesthetic, philosophical and artistic-philological manifestations. The preservation of traditional national-cultural norms of communication and adherence to formal communicative conventions that enhance the institutional features of royal discourse characterize the Queen's public speeches. The article also examines markers of emotional self-expression. Along with the rhetoric of institutional representation with a characteristic sophistication of style, support for a balanced style of expression, the use of ceremonial vocabulary, inclusive pronouns, etc., the Queen delivers speeches built on personal stories and emotional memories, in which she demonstrates the ability to create new metaphorical images and bright stylistic content. Based on associative representations, a language game arises as a form of linguo-creative activity, which is associated with a deliberate violation of linguistic and speech norms of communication with the aim to perform certain functions. Nonverbal components of communication, such as gestures, facial expressions, clothing, etc. form a holistic communicative image of Queen Elizabeth II as a creative discursive personality.
