The integration of native language instruction with literature through artistic texts represents a critical pedagogical approach in contemporary language education. This methodology emphasizes the synergy between linguistic competence and literary appreciation, fostering students’ expressive, interpretative, and analytical skills. The study explores the linguostylistic foundations of such integration, highlighting the role of stylistic devices, language variation, and context in enhancing students’ comprehension and creative abilities. Through an examination of both theoretical frameworks and empirical practices, the article demonstrates the efficacy of combining language and literary instruction to promote holistic linguistic development.
