Метафора как способ выражения и импликации вербальной агрессии (на материале отечественного рок-дискурса)

Abstract

The article is devoted to verbal aggression: possible approaches to the study of this phenomenon and the speech means that mark it are mentioned. First of all, the potential of stylistic devices in the implementation of the aggressive character of the text related to rock discourse is considered. The author analyses such means of speech aggression in which negative connotations and aggressive semantics appear as a result of metaphorical transfer or in the process of replacing with a descriptive turn according to the principle of periphery. In addition, attention is paid to the specifics of the implication of speech aggression in Russian rock discourse and the euphemistic properties of stylistic devices. The article contains numerous examples from both late Soviet and modern musical texts.
