The pragmatic nature of the poetic-psychological parallelisms in zhyrau texts

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to study from the point of view of cognitive
linguistics in the course of considering zhyrau as a linguistic personality of poetical and
psychological parallels in their texts. In the course of the study, we focused on theoretical
information about the linguistic personality, considered 3 different levels that determine the
linguistic personality, including analyzing the cognitive context of the poetic structure used by
zhyrau on the motivational level. Having determined that one of the artistic means often used in the
zhyrau language is parallelism, we took as linguistic material their types, which have a poetical and
psychological character. During the research, we came to the following conclusions. Parallelism can manifest itself in the poetics of zhyrau both through similar phenomena, and through the comparison of opposite phenomena, sometimes through metaphorical combinations,
and through individual words (material, critical, acting) within the framework of semantics, as well
as through the content of entire chapters. Parallelism is a special skill of word ordering, inherent in
improvisation and based on philosophical thinking, national thinking and taste, oratory and
knowledge. At the same time, parallelism is not just an artistic means, it is an ethno-cognitive system
within the framework of one definite national knowledge of the linguistic personality of zhyrau.
