Abstract
This research study aims to analyze the aesthetics of Lanna proverbs in figures of speech. The researcher explored the collection of documentary in Chiang Rai province, consisting approximately 16 books, or 2,022 proverbs. Then, 88 proverbs were selected to analyze their aesthetics demonstrated in figures of speech. The study found that Lanna proverbs contained eight categories of aesthetics presented through figures of speech, including Simile, Metaphor, Synecdoche, Personification, Hyperbole, Paradox, Antithesis and Onomatopoeia. Results clearly shown that Lanna proverbs demonstrated aesthetics in terms of language styles carefully selected
by Lanna intellectuals to deliver precise and concrete meanings. In addition, the proverbs helped convey ideas and emotions aesthetically with rhetorical styles. Therefore, public and private sectors should realize the value and significance of Lanna proverbs, the wisdom and the pride of Lanna people, and help preserve them as national heritage in Thailand.
