Abstract

This study investigates the use of lexical and syntactical stylistic devices based on repetition, focusing on their functions and effects in different types of discourse. Repetition is a powerful rhetorical tool that can enhance emphasis, create rhythm, and reinforce meaning within a text. By examining various forms of repetition, such as anaphora, epistrophe, alliteration, and parallelism, this research explores how these devices contribute to the stylistic and rhetorical richness of language. The study analyzes a range of literary and non-literary texts, including poetry, prose, speeches, and everyday communication, to identify the diverse applications and impacts of repetition. Through a detailed examination of lexical repetition (the recurrence of words or phrases) and syntactical repetition (the repetition of structures or patterns), this research demonstrates how repetition functions as a key element of style, shaping reader or listener perception and enhancing communicative effectiveness. The findings underscore the versatility of repetition as a stylistic device and its significance in both creative expression and persuasive communication, providing insights into its role in enriching language and enhancing textual cohesion.
