Abstract

Gennadii Aigi's spoken discourse differed greatly from his written speech. It possessed such properties as spontaneity, conversational inconsistency, complete absence of any public speaking techniques and rhetorical organisation. Aigi focused on the interlocutor in dialogue, where his individual polysemantic concepts (such as “physiology”, “religious dirt”) originate.The second part of the article contains the author's newspaper interview with Gennadii Aigi, ‘The innovators give way to the nouveaux riches’ (1994).
