КОММУНИКАТИВНЫЕ СТРАТЕГИИ И ТАКТИКИ В ПСАЛМАХ ЦАРЯ ДАВИДА

Abstract

In this article, the Psalter of King David, a famous religious and cultural monument, which is considered by us not so much as a collection of prayers presented in an artistic and poetic form, as legal texts depicting a formal trial carried out in the presence of a Judge God, a righteous defender, an accuser, in the role of the psalmist himself, and the accused (sinners violating God's Law To realize the main communicative goal – to attract the Judge's attention, to make him listen and perceive what is said, to motivate Him to carry out the desired action – the author uses communication strategies and tactics used in the judicial process. These include strategies of emotional influence, defence and prosecution, tactics of simulated dialogue, marking, drawing attention to the injured party, raising a rhetorical question, etc. The author's attention is also directed to the analysis of language means, which contribute to verbal expression and form an important part of the linguistic arsenal, as well as on the main ways of their implementation. The material presented in the psalms gives us the opportunity to show the language techniques used to protect and accuse opponents in the pragmasemantic aspect, that is, the established meaning and implementation of language means is carried out in a direct situational context. The analysis was conducted as part of a discourse analysis using a comparative study method, which showed that these rhetorical means have a convincing effect, and the information transmitted through them receives a high truth status. To carry out analytical work, in addition to discourse analysis, theological, sociocultural approaches were also used, allowing us to consider psalms in the context of a certain religious denomination, Orthodox.
