Abstract

The homily is a speech or a piece of writing of the metatext type following from the Bible which is considered to be the most relevant prototext. The homily educates people in the sphere of religion, church history and morality. From the formal point of view, the homily is primarily realized as a public, oral, official speech act. The homily performed with the use of verbal means of expression achieves the complexity by the use of non-verbal (paralinguistic) stylemes.
