Lecture 4

without a taste”, 
means 
“she has a taste”. 
In litotes we have two meanings of quality – positive and negative. The positive 
meaning is in opposition to the negative meaning. The following structural types of 
litotes can be outlined: 
1.
Negative particle +a word with a negative meaning. 

She is not a fool.”
2.
 
Negative particle + a word with a negative prefix.
 

He was laughing at her but not unkindly” 
“I am not unaware how the productions of the Grub Street brotherhood have 
of late years fallen under many prejudices.”
(Jonathan Swift) 
Function of litotes. Litotes uses ironical understatement in order to emphasize 
an idea or situation rather than minimizing its importance. It rather discovers a 
unique way to attract people’s attention to an idea and that is by ignoring it. Litotes 
doesn’t express a positive state in a negative form, but produces a certain stylistic 
effect making the utterance more ironical. 
Climax
is originated from the Greek term 
klimax
meaning “ladder”. As a 
stylistic device, the term climax refers to a literary device in which words, phrases 
and clauses are arranged in an order to increase their importance within the sentence.
It is a structural unit which is based on the gradual intensification of logical meaning 
and emphatic expression. In gradation every sentence or phrase is emotionally 
stronger or logically more important than the preceding one: 
“The human heart has hidden treasures, 


In secret kept, in silence sealed,- 
The thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures 
Whose charms were broken if revealed?”
(Ch. Bronte)
Each word of this structural unit coming one after the other ‘
the thoughts, the 
hopes, the dreams, the pleasures
’ is understood to be more convincing in the 
revealing the authors idea. It is only the analysis of synonym that helps us to feel the 
increase. We must distinguish three ways of increasing the significance: logical, 
emotional and quantitative.
