Stylistic techniques and tactics of linguistic personality in political discourse (using the example of V.M. Molotov's speeches)

the article discusses the importance of the sphere of political communication in public consciousness. The linguistic discursive personality of a politician plays a crucial role in determining public sentiment and the civic position of peoples. This is true both in relation to modern politicians and to political figures of the Soviet past, such as V. Molotov, A. Gromyko, A. Sobolev. The study of the linguistic discursive personality in political discourse allows for a deeper understanding of the dynamics and features of political communication in various historical and cultural contexts, which can be useful for specialists seeking to assess the influence of linguistic strategies on political processes and public consciousness. Thus, the study of linguistic personality, as in the case of Vyacheslav Molotov, helps to reveal the complex relationships between linguistic personality and political discourse, and also, contributes to a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of political communication and its impact on society. The discursive personality of Soviet politicians and diplomats is associated with the influence of extralinguistic factors, with the ideologemes of the Soviet era, as well as with the functional range of ideological attitudes. In the texts of speeches of Soviet diplomats, it was obligatory to contrast opposing political systems. That is why in the speeches of V.M. Molotov, A.A. Gromyko and A.A. Sobolev the model of "Contrast, parallelism" is actualized, which is the most significant in quantitative terms.
