I.R.Galperin
is simply organised and very detailed. 
His manual “Stylistics” published in 1971 includes the following subdivision of expressive 
means and stylistic devices based on the level-oriented approach: 
1. Phonetic SDs.
2. Lexical SDs. 
3. Syntactical SDs. 
One of the latest classifications of expressive means and stylistic devices is given in 
the book «Fundamentals of English Stylistics» by 
Y.M.Skrebnev
published in 1994.
Y.M. Skrebnev first subdivides stylistics into paradigmatic stylistics (or stylistics of 
units) and syntagmatic stylistics (or stylistics of sequences). Then he explores the levels of 
the language and regards all stylistically relevant phenomena according to this level 
principle in both paradigmatic and syntagmatic stylistics. 
He also uniquely singles out one more level. In addition to phonetics, morphology, 
lexicology and syntax he adds semasiology (or semantics). 
To Y.M.Skrebnev the relationship between these five levels and two aspects of 
stylistic analysis is bilateral. The same linguistic material of these levels provides stylistic 
features studied by paradigmatic and syntagmatic stylistics. The difference lies in its 
different arrangement.

In our course we study stylistic devices according to their phonetic, semantic, 
syntactic, and combination of both semantic and syntactic features. Thus we divide them 
into:
1.Phonetic stylistic devices. 
2. Lexical stylistic devices. 
3. Syntactic stylistic devices. 
4. Lexico-syntactical stylistic devices.
