The article addresses the issue of advertisements in old newspaper texts. Specifically examined are classified private and promotional adverts from a German-language Cracow newspaper “Krakauer Zeitung”, published between 1857 and 1866. To date, few analyses of such texts have been carried out. Jörg Meier (2011) examined old German-language advertising texts published in German-language press of Central Europe, particularly in the Habsburg Monarchy. However, in his research he did not include Galicia. In his research, he considered both extra-textual (language-independent) and intra-textual (linguistic) factors. This article draws on and attempts to continue that research. The analysis takes into account the approach developed by Silvia Bendel (1998) used in the study of older advertising texts. In particular, it is concerned with text actions used in these texts, such as naming a particular product, indicating its price, giving the place of sale, etc. The text function model developed by Brinker (2001) was also taken into account. In addition, Janich’s (2013) model designed to study contemporary advertising texts was applied. The aim of this paper is to establish the features of the textual genre of “advertisement” in the analyzed texts from “Krakauer Zeitung” on the basis of the above-mentioned literature on the subject. It is specifically concerned with intra-textual factors. The study considers aspects such as textual actions, typographic elements, means of persuasion and argumentation. The study includes 20 texts which form a representative corpus. Almost all of the examined texts have a basic appellative function; however, in some of them an informative function was found. Almost all texts contain means of persuasion and argumentation that determine the appellative function. However, this function is not expressed exclusively in a linguistic way. Typographical means such as font type and size play an important role. In the analyzed texts, traces or individual instances of graphic/image elements, which complement or extend the advertising message contained in them, are used.

The outdoor report is a popular but no so deeply covered text type of journalistic style as well as of internet-based communication. Outdoor reports represent a hybrid genre that pursues the broad goal of making hiking as attractive as possible for the general public. As a hybrid text type, they deserve a special linguo-stylistic approach, because of their factual objectivity on the one hand and author- related aesthetic subjectivity on the other hand. Furthermore, these texts often have an interdiscursive or intermedial character. In this article, we will discuss the basics of text type theory and spatial theory based on W. Albert, Peter J. Brenner, Ju. Lotman, D. S. Likhatchov. This establishes the theoretical base- line of the following research. The research focuses on the characteristics of the geographically defined space of the Alpine region as well as text-forming spatial-related characteristics of the text type outdoor report. The aim is to show on the concrete contexts, how in outdoor reports the linguo-stylistic means of objective as well as subjective representation are used by the author to increase expressiveness and impact on the recipient. This is the original value of the analysis. This carried out analysis addresses the matter of classifying and interpretation methods, as well as basic principles of geopoetics approaches. In the process of analysis is inter alia elucidated, that the outdoor report of NZZ-column coevally exhibits particular poetic intentions and implicates using figures of speech as well as other connotative words and constructions. By means of the analysis, it is shown that various linguo-stylistic devices are used for creation of the Alpine space such as toponymes of different types, factual and expressive epithets, comparisons, which acts as text productive. The essential part is the representation of the charms of the Alpine landscape, which is reflected in symbolic subtext. As the analytic material consists of five outdoor reports from the Neue Zürcher Zeitung – from the section „Hiking in the Alps“ by Heinz Staffelbach from 2020.

Drawing from both German and Polish linguistic and literary perspectives, the article attempts to examine genre changes within the genre pattern of the novel and decide whether Olga Tokarczuk’s Flights, described by the author herself as a novel, should be attributed to this genre. We assume that linguistic and literary tools will allow us to determine the most characteristic features of contemporary novel productions to decide on the nature of changes taking place within the studied genre. Looking at Tokarczuk’s work not through the prism of a single genre but, following Maria Wojtak, Kirsten Adamzik or Ulla Fix, from the perspective of inter-genre relations, allows not only to conclude that the analyzed material is located on the fringes of the genre pattern of the novel but also to see other inter-textual dependencies and consider the text under study as a genre in the form of a collection.

The paper deals with the role of multilingualism in selected text types. The reflections on forms of multilingualism and occasions for using multiple languages in a text lead to the creation of a typology that distinguishes between obligatory and optional use of multiple languages in text types. The obligatory multilingualism is constitutive in dictionaries, textbooks and teaching materials. Optional multilingualism, which was examined using the example of German advertising texts and grave inscriptions from Germany and Denmark, reinforces the main function of the text.

This article presents an attempt to show the specific features of the German legal language in the chosen wills of the nobility from Royal Prussia of the 17th century, in the area of German settlement in the East. The investigation aims to answer the question as to whether the examined testaments suit the pattern of the will as a text type. The author focuses on the graphemic, lexical and syntactic levels of the testament. The outline of structure and function of wills provides the background for such a defined research area.

The present paper involves a textlinguistic‑codicological analysis and attempts to identify the specific features of the Polish administrative language in the entries of the 19th c. parish register from the town of Busko‑Zdrój. The aim of the study is to answer the question as to whether the examined annotations can be regarded as a pattern of a parish register record, and henceforth as a text type. The author investigates the structure and characteristics of different register entries, with research field determined by the general structure and functionfunction of parish register records and annotations of these records.

This article is a review of a monograph on genological research on speech species. The objects of this publication are tomb inscriptions from over 60 necropolises in the north-eastern Lublin Region, which is situated within the borders of the Orthodox Lublin-Chelm Diocese and in the western part of the Volyn oblast in Ukraine. These are ethnically, linguistically, culturally and religiously non-homogeneous areas. The analysis takes into consideration the structure, the type of the functions fulfilled by grave inscriptions, the pragmatic aspect and cultural specificity of the analyzed texts. The subject of the review is to discuss the content of the publication and to implement the research goals undertaken by the author. In assessing the scientific value of the monograph, the current methodological solutions and the role of the study in the context of the state of research in Polish text linguistics were taken into account. The reviewed monograph is a reliable empirical study, however, the adopted description model does not take into account semiotic features that would complete the information about the analyzed texts. The book may be a contribution to Slavonic dialectological studies, especially to the indication of mutual Polish-Ukrainian interferences. It constitutes a source for studying the vocabulary of the borderland. The work may be used for comparative studies of funeral texts.

Within the project “Pragmatics above grammar: Subjectivity and intersubjectivity in Estonian registers and text types” (PRG341) we are studying the expression of subjectivity and intersubjectivity in different written and spoken registers of modern Estonian. We focus on adverbs that function as discourse markers (e.g. vist ‘maybe, probably’, ilmselt ‘apparently, obviously’, tegelikult ‘actually’), markers that develop from main clauses containing cognition verbs that take sentence complements (e.g. (ma) arvan ‘I think’, usun ‘I believe’, (mulle) tundub ‘it seems (to me), it appears (that)’) as well as modal and performative verbs (e.g. võib (juhtuda) ‘can (happen)’, peaks (tulema) ‘should (come)’; kinnitan/väidan (olevat) ‘I affirm/claim’). The analysis combines quantitative corpus-linguistic and qualitative pragmatic approaches, thus belonging to the field of corpus pragmatics. Unlike previous studies of related topics, the project systematically compares the usage of markers in different registers (spoken, online communication, print texts) and text types. The pilot studies performed thus far have revealed several problems with the existing Estonian corpora, important in the study of pragmatics. Firstly, some text types are underrepresented or not represented at all, the text types cannot always be distinguished, and the particular text may not always correspond to the nominal text type (e.g. an academic text may contain quotes from texts of other types). All of this makes it difficult to do comparative statistical analysis of different text types. Secondly, the markers under examination are multifunctional and identifying their (inter)subjective function requires consideration of context broader than a single sentence. However, the public search systems for the existing corpora do not provide this context. For instance, the discourse marker function of cognition verbs is indicated primarily by the fact that the topic of the conversation or text follows through the subordinate clause, not the main clause. Since the available search systems do not provide context larger than a single sentence, the identification of the topic of the discourse, and therefore of the potential discourse-marker function of the verb, is made more difficult. To avoid these problems, the project working group is developing a new “Pragmatics” corpus, being created in the SketchEngine environment. The corpus is made up of 10 subcorpora representing different text types and registers. Each subcorpus contains roughly 500,000 words.

This article seeks to determine whether different kinds of word formation can serve as a criterion for the classification and characterization of different text types and to what extent this criterion is dependent on a particular language. In order to demonstrate the role of word formation, the study analyzes fictional texts (fairy tales) and factual texts (instruction manuals) with respect to what kinds and types of word formation are specific for these types of texts in Russian and German. The analysis shows that although the text-distinguishing function of kinds of word formation is manifested in both languages, in Russian it is expressed to a lesser extent than in German. The reason for this is that the basic kinds of word formation are less evenly distributed in the Russian language than in German.

The focus of this diachronic linguistic research into the Early New High German is, among others, the use of language conventions in a particular historical linguistic community and the development of these conventions in a given period. A suitable procedure for such investigations has been found in description of the text types in the form of the so-called text forms, i.e. schemas with binding components present in all copies of the given text type, or additional components resulting from the specifics of a concrete communication situation which may depend on the writer’s personality. After determining the text forms, i.e. analysis at the level of the text macrostructure, the analysis of selected microstructures of each text follows, which refers to the formal and content aspects of a sentence. From this perspective, the study examines 180-year-long development of the German specimens of the ‘inventories of inheritance’ text type produced in the Olomouc Town Office. Concrete examples from German texts are given to illustrate the gradual formation of a uniform text structure and its uniform lexical realization.

Im Mittelpunkt der aktuellen diachronen Erforschung des Frühneuhochdeutschen liegt der konkrete Gebrauch der Sprachkonventionen in einer bestimmten Sprachgemeinschaft und die Entwicklung dieser Gewohnheiten in einem längeren Zeitraum. Eines der optimalen Verfahren in dieser Untersuchung ist eine Beschreibung von Textexemplaren in Form von Textmustern mit verbindenden und freien Komponenten, die auf eine spezifische kommunikative Situation reagierten und von der Persönlichkeit des Schreibers beeinflusst werden konnten. Der Untersuchung der Textschemata, d.h. der Analyse auf der Ebene der Makrostruktur des Textes, folgt die Untersuchung der Mikrostrukturen ausgewählter Texte, die sich auf die formalen Aspekte bezieht. Die vorliegende Studie analysiert unter diesem Aspekt deutsche Exemplare der Textsorte „Inventar des hinterlassenen Gutes“, die in der Olmützer Stadtkanzlei verfasst wurden, und verfolgt ihre Entwicklung im Zeitraum von 180 Jahren. Konkrete Beispiele belegen eine allmähliche Entwicklung der einheitlichen Textstruktur und deren ebenso einheitliche lexikalische Realisierung.

The paper describes the new corpus SYN2015, the most recent 100 million word corpus of contemporary written Czech. General notions of corpus representativeness and balance are discussed in this context with a focus on the new design of representativeness adopted for SYN2015. Unlike the previous synchronic corpora SYN2000, SYN2005 and SYN2010, which were balanced according to text reception (based on sociological surveys), the composition of SYN2015 is based on the “texts-as-products” principle with arbitrary proportions of the individual categories within a revised text classification scheme. The paper argues in favour of this solution by highlighting three major advantages: (1) this type of composition can be upheld constant in the future, ensuring corpus comparability, while reception changes constantly; (2) it emphasises diverse composition of the corpus as a language sample; (3) corpus SYN2015 serves not only as a representative sample, but also as a large pool of texts from which different subsets (subcorpora) based on various linguist-specified criteria can be drawn.

The article presents the analysis of the means of “odyvnennia verging on being absurd” of the form and content of the most well-known Ukrainian Diaspora playwright Ihor Kostetskiy’s (1913–1984) play ”The Twins will Meet One Day” (1947). It was established that the formal-semantic organization of the “dramatic work” text type is deformed to a great extent. First of all, these are communicative-lingual actions of the “presenter” in the prologue and interlude of the play. Communicative actions of the heroes of the play in a number of cases break the rules, conventions and maxims of confl ict free communication. Besides, the author introduces mystical elements in a quite realistic content of the play.

The text type of the inspection decree can be reconstructed from the corpus of such documents issued in the region of Lviv. This text type was that of an official decree, and it was part of the legal enforcement process in the 16th-century Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The main argument schema in the text type under analysis was realized through the following formulation: who decrees what to whom in response to complaint. Its full version also contains additional textual components that further elaborate the main structure, and which provide precise conditions on how to effectively execute the decree and on what legal grounds. Shaping this text type was a long-term process. As presented in the analyses, the 17th-century version of the text type in case was a highly developed, advanced one. Its earliest textual sources can be traced back to the Medieval official documents. One can safely assume that the officials in inspection commissions – established by the Polish Diet, and active from the 16th to the 18th century - contributed hugely to the development of a standardized text type for this official document.

Over 10 years ago, physician rating portals emerged as a new medicine-related offer on the Internet. Since then, they have been developing dynamically and gradually have became an established marketing tool in the medical industry. In this article, physician profiles on physician rating portals as introductory texts are analyzed from a linguistic point of view. Using a model of textual linguistic description, they are characterized as a type of text by pointing out their constitutive features at different levels.

In this paper we study the use of interjections in various types of written texts (professional, non-fiction, journalistic, fiction and written dialogical texts on the internet) and in dialogical speech. Investigating the use of interjections in written texts, we drew upon corpora SYN2000, SYN2005 and SYN2006PUB, and further we utilized our own excerptions and experiences with written texts. In examing spoken language, wwe extracted data from the Czech National Corpus and we excerpted sone TV discussions, talk shows and everyday spoken speech. We focused on a frequency of interjections in a text type, on preferred idioms and their classes. In the conclusion of the paper, we compare our results to the information provided in Czech dictionaries.

Kritischer Nachruf‘ – eine neue Textsortenvariante?

DE
Obwohl, oder vielleicht gerade dadurch, dass der Nachruf im Interessengebiet mehrerer Forschungsdisziplinen steht, gilt er als eine immer noch unzureichend untersuchte Kategorie. Auch aus der textsortentypologischen Sicht herrscht über den Status des ‚Nachrufs‘ sowie dessen funktionale und thematische Merkmale und definitorische Parameter in der germanistischen Forschung keine Übereinstimmung. Hinzu kommen die immer wieder in der Tages- und Online-Presse erscheinenden Texte, die mit dem Vermerk ‚kritischer Nachruf‘ im Titelkomplex versehen werden. Sollte dies somit bedeuten, dass sich neben dem Nachruf eine neue Größe etabliert hat? Der Beitrag setzt sich zum Ziel, den Nachruf als Analyseobjekt aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven zu beleuchten und anhand der Analyse von ausgewählten Pressetexten zu ermitteln, ob es sich bei kritischen Nachrufen womöglich um eine neue Textsortenvariante handelt.

Despite, or perhaps because of the fact that the obituary is in the area of interest of several research disciplines, it is regarded as a still inadequately examined category. From the point of view of linguistic genology concerning the German studies of this text type, scholars are not unanimous on the status of the obituary, its functional and thematic features and definitional parameters. Furthermore, both in printed and electronic press one can increasingly find texts provided with an annotation ‘critical obituary’ in the title. Does it mean that beside the obituary there has been established a new category? The author of this article aims to describe the concept of the obituary, discuss it from different perspectives, and on the basis of selected press releases, examine whether it is possible to talk about differentiating a new variant of text type.

Mimo, a może właśnie z tego powodu, że wspomnienie pośmiertne znajduje się w obszarze zainteresowań wielu dyscyplin badawczych, uchodzi ono za wielkość, która nadal niewystarczająco została zbadana. Z punktu widzenia genologii lingwistycznej w badaniach germanistycznych dotyczących rodzajów tekstów badacze nie są zgodni co do kwestii statusu, wyróżników funkcjonalnych i tematycznych wspomnienia pośmiertnego ani też odnośnie wyznaczników definicyjnych tego gatunku. Ponadto w prasie drukowanej i elektronicznej pojawiają się coraz częściej teksty opatrzone w tytule wzmianką ‘krytyczne wspomnienie pośmiertne’. Czy należy więc z tego wnioskować, że obok wspomnienia pośmiertnego wykształciła się nowa wielkość? Artykuł przybliża pojęcie wspomnienia pośmiertnego oraz ukazuje je z różnych perspektyw, a na podstawie analizy wybranych tekstów prasowych stawia także pytanie, czy w przypadku krytycznego wspomnienia pośmiertnego można mówić o nowym wariancie gatunkowym.
