Abstract

The study of poetic discourse received great impetus from the beginning of the twentieth century onward with the rise of general linguistics (Linguistic Poetics), and sociology (Sociological Poetics). As for Linguistic Poetics, presented in the framework of Roman Jakobson, it had exhausted its potential for theoretical inquiry. Sociological Poetics, on the contrary, has not yet received the attention it deserves. This paper provides a brief account of two projects of Sociological Poetics devised by Voloshinov/Bakhtin, and T. Adorno. It offers schematic conceptualization of the notion of lyricism; contains some observations on the aesthetic evaluation of the realization of the concept lyricism through the prism of rhetorical sublime.
