The article investigates the rhetoric means that are used to adorn the artistic discourse. Adorning of the speech means to delever the artistic discourse to a reader by using various rhetoric means. This problem involved the attention of the rhetorics in ancient Greek, Rome etc., and they have interesting thoughts about adorning the speech by using rhetoric means. In those times the stated problem was introduced on political, law-court, and other speeches. In modern times this problem is also in the air. As the cognitive linguitics developes the problem that was proposed by the Roma rhetorics are investigated basing on conscious, mind frames. The article deals with the three main factors that can be introduced by a speaker. They are admonition, evocation and inspiration. These three factors have special importance in the artistic discourse. So, to adorn the speech is the main rhetoric means. The author states that the adorned speech gives the reader a special kind of inspiration and attracts the reader's attention more effectively. Different lexical and syntactical constructions (for example, word order, lexical repetitions, inversion, chiasm etc.) as well as colorful figurative can be used as rhetorical means. The author tries to explain the importance of rhetoric means in the artistic discourse using some of the rhetoric means in the article. Gesture, mimics and others can also help to increase the effectiveness of the speech.Having investigated the problem the author comes to the conclusion using the figurative, rhetoric means the speaker tries to increase the effectiveness of the information. The author claims that if the artistic discourse is attractive, the listener listens to it attentively, believes in it and remembers it easily. To create the figurative speech means that not depending on the educational level everyone perceives the speech and enjoys listening to it.

“…We would like to reiterate the above-mentioned definition of discourse given by N. Enkvist (Enkvist, 1989) that it is the synthesis of text with context existing in social life. T. van Dijk gives a new approach to context (Dijk, 1998:23): As to the context, on the other hand, this is said to include the participants and their roles, goals settings and shared knowledge.…”

“…Any argumentation relies on the causeeffect or causeresult connections manifested through various linguistic devices or simply implied in discourse. A number of researchers (Halliday, Hasan, 1976, Abdullayev, 1983, Warner, 1984, Enkvist, 1989 investigated the grammatical and lexical devices which signal causeeffect connections used, first of all, to serve for certain pragmatic goals of the sender. Such discourse markers of argumentation explicate logical reasoning for any argument and represent a sequential structure.…”

The structural analysis, as one of the types of descriptive approach, has traditionally been used to study the linguistic units in hierarchy. This analysis has made great contribution to all levels, including the level of syntax because syntax is by nature hierarchic. In sentence we cannot say or write two things at the same time. The sentences have to be presented one after the other, in linear order. Therefore the problem is how to signal hierarchies through linear presentation. One of such attempts has been made by the representatives of Prague School of Linguistics (Mathesius, 1967). The `Praguean` influence has been widespread and long-lasting. Its main emphasis lay on the analysis of language as a system of functionally related units. The notion `unit` reminds in some way the Saussurean influence. In particular, it led to the distinction between the phonetic and the phonological analysis of sounds, the analysis of the phoneme into distinctive features as well as of the theme-rheme or communicative structure of sentence.

“…Before moving on to apply the above discussion, it must be noted that the principle of accepting (in science fiction) references that are not easily coherent is part of Enkvist's (1989) parametric principle, that texts should be judged äs well-formed if they fit the Parameters of their text-type. Related to this is the notion of a text's plausibility, by which the coherence of references made in a text are judged, not in the narrow terms of ZifPs (1984) sense of reality, but on their rationalisation in the System of the text-world.…”
