Abstract

The paper examines the traditional Russian understanding of good speech, which is characterized by a close relationship and unity of ethical and aesthetic categories. It reveals the peculiarities of the speech structure of modern spiritual speech, understood as a set of genre varieties functioning in the sphere of religion. It is shown that the speech organization of spiritual speech is based on the principle of symmetry, which manifests itself both at the level of content and form. This allows the author to say that spiritual speech is a carrier and keeper of the traditions of Russian speech culture, an embodiment of the Russian rhetorical ideal.
