STUDY OF SOME FORMS OF EXPRESSION OF EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS IN WRITTEN TRAVEL GUIDES

Summary/Abstract: Subjectivity is a large and complex phenomenon which dates back to the centuries of philosophers and which leads to multidisciplinarity. In the present work, our attention will be focused mainly on emotions and feelings as an affective category always present in our speech. In fact, terms that describe emotions also include the idea of movement and action. It will translate into linguistic diversity and richness. Thus, the terms of emotion can be nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, collocations or even full sentences. But, if these elements are the best known traditionally within the framework of a linguistics of the enunciation, we can note the recourse to other procedures often designating an implicit emotional dimension such as the classic stylistic figures (interjections, personification, hyperbola, etc.) and also punctuation. In this article, we propose to examine some marks of the speaker's subjectivity. We will analyse how classical rhetorical figures allow the speaker to manage the expression of his subjectivity in the proposed corpus. To illustrate this study we will use travel guides written in Romanian and French.
