The emergence and approval of synergetics as a science of the self-organization of complex systems, there is a correction of the methodological principles of the study of dynamic systems of various nature, in particular, in the language. A special role in the transfer of collective and individual-author's wisdom from generation to generation is played by aphorisms.
The purpose of the study is to consider compositional-stylistic features of aphorisms through the prism of the synergetic paradigm, analyze the synergetic principles of self-organization of the discourse of aphorisms.
In the research general scientific, linguistic and linguosynergetic methods are used.
Results. Compositional features of aphorisms, as a rule, consist of two parts: the main idea and conclusion. For aphorisms characteristic markers of synergism are described by E.Yu. Muratova, namely: non-standard syntagmatic links of lexemes, intertextuality, stylistic figures, such as repetitions, comparison, parallelism. The article deals with the synergetic principles of the self-organization of the discourse of the English aphorisms, the features of the action of the parameter order are applied to various levels of self-organization of the aphorism system: cognitive, pragmatic, linguistic. Theoretical aspects of the study are illustrated by an English examples.
Aphorisms reflect certain stereotypes of behavior, as well as universal, national, group and individual values.Mutual dependence of language and thinking is most evident in them. The pragmatic level of aphorisms can only be conventionally separated from the cognitive level. At this level, speech strategies and codes are created for the realization of discourse objectives. Any aphorism as an independent unit, represented in dictionaries without the context, has an independent meaning and potential pragmatic purposes. The practical realization of these pragmatic purposes occurs when the aphorism is used in speech as a reproductive unit. For the stylistic level of analysis, linguistic phenomena such as the actual division of sentences or superphrasal unity, which are realized in a full manner due to the stylistic devices used in the discourse.
