Abstract

The review of Aleksander Kiklewicz’s Estetyka a pragmatyka: estetyczne akty mowy provides a critical and comparative discussion of aesthetic speech acts, juxtaposing them with the concept of figurative speech acts. In both cases, these acts arise in communication from the sender’s deliberate intent and the listener’s interpretation within a specific context. In addition to this core discussion, the reviewer also emphasizes the book’s valuable stylistic, pragmalinguistic, and literary background, drawing attention to aspects of the publication that may provide insightful answers to questions relevant to the reader.
