Longinus' theory of the Sublime

Comment of Longinus' theory of the Sublime

Longinus critically praises and blames literary works as examples of good or bad styles of writing. Longinus ultimately promotes an “elevation of style” and an essence of “simplicity”. Longinus describes it thus, “the first and most important source of sublimity [is] the power of forming great conceptions.” The concept of the sublime is generally accepted to refer to a style of writing that elevates itself “above the ordinary”. Finally, Longinus sets out five sources of sublimity: great thoughts, strong emotions, certain figures of thought and speech, noble diction, and dignified word arrangement. Not all of the medieval scholars agreed with Boethius who was known for his disdain for poetry and which was the result of the medieval theology and philosophy. One such scholar would be Thomas Aquinas, who was also a great critic and whose ideas influenced scholars like Dante Alighieri.

4. What is a standard language? Discuss in detail the process of language standardization.

A standard language may be defined either as a language variety used by a population for public purposes or as a variety that has undergone standardization. Typically, varieties that become standardized are the local dialects spoken in the centers of commerce and government, where a need arises for a variety that will serve more than local needs. Standardization typically involves a fixed orthography, codification in authoritative grammars and dictionaries and public acceptance of these standards.

There are five minor processes which are used in English for coining new words; back formation, reduplication, blending, clipping and acronym-formation

Back formation

Back formation reverses the normal process of word-formation by affixation. It creates new words by dropping, instead of adding, affixes. For example, beg, burgle, edit, hawk, peddle and a host of other verbs which are historically derived from nouns of a particular type.

Place of articulation

The place of articulation of a consonant is determined by the passive articulator that is involved in its production. It is for this reason that the sound is also named after the passive articulator.

Bilabial : those consonants in the articulatio of which the upper and lower lips are involved. For example the initial sounds in the English words, post, boast, meal , win
Labio-dental : Those consonants in the production of which the active articulator is the lower lip and the passive articulator is the upper teeth. The initial consonants in the English words, fate, and vow are labio-dental consonants.
