Abstract

The purpose of the presented article is to give a linguistic description of diplomatic documents. Currently, the interest in the study of diplomatic discourse from a linguistic point of view is growing more and more, because its linguistic features are important for the study in terms of developing effective international interaction. The importance of the linguistic analysis of diplomatic discourse in all spheres of international relations is undeniable, and the task of forming a common diplomatic culture in the conditions of globalization is more relevant today than ever. To achieve this goal, the following research tasks were set: to classify and describe the features of discursive genres of diplomatic documents; to analyze the linguistic features of diplomatic documents. The objectives of the study and the specifics of the analyzed material determined the choice of the following research methods as the main ones: the method of direct observation of the material, followed by analysis and generalization of the results; contextual-interpretive method; intent analysis method; content analysis method. The main conclusion made within the framework of the study is that the style of diplomatic writing varies depending on the language and traditions of different countries, but is still subject to some general rules that are defined by international practice and conventions. Diplomatic documents must convey the state's point of view and insufficient attention to language can seriously damage the relationship between the countries.
