Abstract

The author of the article uses the material of the German language to review features typical of a group of genres in oral monologic public speech - socio-ritual texts. They include lack of new information for the listener, imagery, predominance of form over content, use of stylistic figures and ritualistic repetitions. The author demonstrates how specific features of socio-ritual texts influence an interpreter who is getting prepared to work with such texts.
