description Lyrical literature is one of the widest types of literature aiming at reporting and expressing the feelings of the speaker and giving joy to the audience. In this literary type, the speaker uses several techniques to convey their lyrical messages. There are some methods to distinguish lyrical literature from the other literary types. These methods are so comprehensive that they can be applied for the classification of other literary types and genres as well. With a focus on Jacobson’s theories, this study was an attempt to propose two of these methods to distinguish between lyrical and other types of literature. These two methods are called ‘Sender-oriented’ and ‘Receiver-oriented’. Based on these two methods, in the course of communication, it is possible to address an audience or ignore them. The findings of this study showed that it is possible to recognize and distinguish lyrical literature from epic and didactic ones through the application of Jacobson’s theory of language functions and the direct and indirect sender-oriented methods.
