With the intention of the German, French and Polish foreign ministers to bring their countries closer together after the fall of the Iron Curtain, the Weimar Triangle was founded in 1991. This setting has enabled an institutionalised regional cooperation on the governmental level as well as between the respective civil societies. However today, in a Europe of permanent crises and protracted uncertainty, a risky divergence between Germany, France and Poland seems to emerge. Since the Polish national elections in October 2015 has brought the right‑wing, nationalist Law‑ and‑Justice‑party (PiS) into power, we are also witnessing a rising relevance of domestic political determinants for mutual contacts. Facing this new period of tension, where more closeness and trust would be required, discursive attitudes and strategies of ‘othering’ might gain ground and lead to increasing alienation. Based on the assumption that the portrayal of a country could be both the first step towards creating and obtaining a more inclusive or exclusive identity, this paper aims to find out the following: in how far are German and French media about to pre‑ cook patterns of asymmetry and alienation? Or follow they rather an inclusive and comprehensible approach towards Poland? These questions are exemplified by the biggest centre‑left and centre‑right German and French daily newspapers Süddeutsche Zeitung, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Le Monde and Le Figaro, whereas the corpus of data is limited to the period of the year 2016. By making use of the critical discourse analysis, this paper provides information about to what extent Poland is considered to be a close and indispensable partner as well as to where we can identify mechanisms of putting the country aside as a significant other.

Without access to physical cues normally present in face-to-face interaction or extralinguistic information, like ethnographic background or physical attributes, multiple salient online identities, (collectively labelled as a personal identity cluster), can be crafted by exploiting the tools available within the online medium. By examining the language choices of a single participant to an online discussion board, it is shown how identity can be created through interaction, utilizing principles of emergence, indexicality (labels, stances), relationality (positive and negative), and positionality (temporary roles) and partialness. Identity, as described through the standpoint of sociocultural linguistics, is thereby a performance created for and modified through interaction with others. Examples from a case study are shown to validate and enrich this theoretical position.

W komunikacji za pośrednictwem internetu uczestnicy muszą obejść się bez informacji pozajęzykowych, które są normalnie dostępne w komunikacji bezpośredniej, takich jak pochodzenie czy wygląd. Dlatego w kontekście komunikacji online możliwe jest tworzenie różnorakich tożsamości (zwanych zbiorczo zlepkami tożsamości osobowych) przy wykorzystaniu jedynie środków dostępnych w tym medium. Analizując wybory językowe jednego uczestnika forum dyskusyjnego, autorka pokazuje jak można skonstruować tożsamość poprzez interakcję. W swoich badaniach autorka używa pięciu reguł tworzenia takich tożsamości zaproponowanych przez Bucholtz i Hall w 2005: zasady pojawiania się, indeksowania (etykiet, podejścia), zależności (pozytywnej i negatywnej), reguły pozycyjności (tymczasowych ról) oraz zasady złożoności. Tożsamość, opisana z punktu widzenia lingwistyki socjo-kulturowej, jest więc definiowana jako produkt, który jest wynikiem komunikowania się z innymi. Przykłady zaczerpnięte z badań autorki nad internetowym forum dyskusyjnym potwierdzają tę teorię i oferują możliwości jej dalszego rozwinięcia.

DE

In der Online-Kommunikation, anders als es in der direkten Kommunikation der Fall ist, haben die Kommunikationspartner keine Informationen über ihre Herkunft oder das Aussehen. Aus diesem Grund entsteht die Notwendigkeit, in der Online-Kommunikation die Identität (auch Konglomerat von Identitäten genannt) mittels sprachlicher Mittel, die in der online Kommunikation zugänglich sind, auf unterschiedliche Art und Weise herzustellen. Die Autorin zeigt, wie man durch eine Online-Interaktion die Identität konstruieren kann, indem die Sprache eines Teilnehmers von Online-Diskussionsforum analysiert wird. Dabei bezieht sich die Autorin auf fünf Regeln der Identitätskonstruierung, die von Bucholtz und Hall (2005) entwickelt wurden, z. B. das Prinzip der Emergenz, der Indexikalität, der Relationalität, der Positionalität und der Komplexität. Aus der Perspektive der sozio-kulturellen Linguistik ist die Identität ein Produkt, das erst in der Interaktion entsteht. Die angeführten Beispiele bestätigen die Theorie und bieten die Möglichkeit ihrer weiteren Entwicklung.

The aim of the article is to show the changes that take place in new media and culture, and have an impact on the study of discourses. A structuralist paradigm, an iconic paradigm and a performative paradigm were chosen for the analysis. According to the author, these paradigms have the greatest influence on the cultural paradigm undergoing constant transformation. The most important consequence of the cultural turn is the interpretative and humanistic attitude used in media discourse research. It emphasizes the constructivist vision of cultural phenomena, cooperation and relations of various cultural practices, a departure from essentialism, narrative reading of texts, individual understanding and pragmatic use of a given text, as well as openness to numerous cultural contexts that expand its meaning.

The present paper presents gendered narratives produced during research interviews with readers of a wedding magazine. While interpreting media texts, the women gave accounts of their bridal and feminine experience. Of all understandings of a narrative proposed in discourse analysis, the ones taken here are of a situated construction of self in interaction (Taylor 2006) and of an established sequence of life trajectory (Bruner 1991). Accordingly, the lived experience of identity is approached as discursively mediated – by the available set of subject positions and interpretative repertoires. In the analysis, the interviewees are found to employ socio-culturally accumulated resources of self-construction in talk. Their narrative work reveals how speakers (despite their dependency on the intertextual reservoir of notions, images and associations) seek to position themselves as independent and agentic subjects of discourse.

(Non-)Honorific Ways of Referring to Public Figures in the Polish Media Discourse in LithuaniaThis article focuses on the ways of referring to public figures which involve the use of honorifics when talking about high-ranking representatives of society. In the Polish cultural tradition this function is performed by official and professional titles and the honorific pan/pani ‘mister/misses’. The study analyses designations used by participants of the discussion programme “Szósty dzień tygodnia” [The Sixth Day of the Week], which is broadcast on the Polish Radio “Znad Wilii” [By the Wilia River] in Lithuania. The research material includes 10 radio broadcasts aired in 2015 and 2016, featuring a total of 24 people (the host and 23 guests). The aim of the study is to identify the most frequently applied constructions that consist of personal names and official/professional titles, and to determine different functions of the honorific pan/pani in these constructions. The quantitative analysis makes it possible to identify the frequency of particular constructions and the tendencies prevailing in the media discourse. The qualitative analysis of the collected material reveals a variety of functions performed by the honorific pan/pani. Depending on the formal or pragmatic context, this item may endow a construction with a shade of respect or, conversely, make it derogatory. The female honorific pani firstly has a grammatical function: it is used with the titles and surnames which are masculine in form as the only indicator of female gender (e.g. pani prezydent, pani premier Szydło). (Nie)honoryfikatywne sposoby określania znanych publicznie osób w polskim dyskursie medialnym na LitwieTematem niniejszego artykułu są sposoby określania znanych publicznie osób w użyciu referującym z uwzględnieniem stosowanych środków honoryfikatywności, które przysługują im ze względu na wysoką rangę w hierarchii społecznej. W polskiej tradycji kulturowej taką funkcję pełnią tytuły funkcyjne i profesjonalne oraz jednostka honoryfikatywna pan/pani. Przedmiotem analizy są określenia używane w wypowiedziach referujących w audycji dyskusyjnej „Szósty dzień tygodnia”, emitowanej w polskiej rozgłośni radiowej „Znad Wilii” na Litwie. Podstawę materiałową stanowi 10 pochodzących z lat 2015–2016 audycji, w których uczestniczyły 24 osoby (prowadząca oraz 23 gości programu). Celem badania jest ujawnienie najczęściej stosowanych konstrukcji złożonych z antroponimów i tytułów funkcyjnych / profesjonalnych oraz ukazanie różnych funkcji jednostki pan/pani w analizowanych wyrażeniach. Zastosowanie w badaniu materiału metody ilościowej pozwala ustalić częstotliwość użycia poszczególnych konstrukcji i dominujące w dyskursie medialnym tendencje w tym zakresie. Dzięki analizie jakościowej można ujawnić różne funkcje jednostki leksykalnej pan/pani, która w zależności od uwarunkowań formalnych i pragmatycznych może nadać konstrukcji nie tylko nacechowanie godnościowe, lecz również deprecjonujące. Jednostka rodzaju żeńskiego pani w większości przypadków pełni przede wszystkim funkcję gramatyczną – przy rzeczownikach tytularnych i nazwiskach mających postać męską jest jedynym wyznacznikiem rodzaju żeńskiego, np. pani prezydent, pani premier Szydło.

The main goal of the undertaken research was to present how texts devoted to literary events function in contemporary media discourse. The article analyzes the reaction of the French-speaking media to the literary event of the Francophone world – presenting a Senegalese writer with the most prestigious literary award in France. The authors review the major media publishing in French in which the figure of the laureate Mohamed Mbougar Sarr was celebrated, the content of the awarded novel as well as the opinions of critics and journalists. The online versions of, among others, Le Monde, Le Courrier International, Le Soleil, LaPresse.ca, Le Soir, L’Observateur Paalga and audiovisual media such as RFI, TV5 Monde, France 24, TSR were analyzed. The choice of the aforementioned media was motivated by the desire to investigate the issue in journalistic texts, diverse in terms of themes, content, and style. The authors also try to explain the phenomenon of hatred towards the laureate expressed by some Senegalese Facebook and Twitter users.

This article begins with a delineation of the context of contemporary professional journalism, particularly its market-driven, technologically advanced and discursively diverse character. Journalism studies scholars trace media evolution with the aid of content analyses. On the other hand, linguists, including stylisticians, try to capture recent changes in media language with the use of qualitative methods, e.g., with categories derived from discourse analysis, which enable them to see how hegemonic discourses are (re)constructed in journalistic texts. This article elaborates on the category of rhetorical style and shows its applicability to the studies of various media “rhetorics.” Following a review of literature and of author’s own projects, the article illustrates possible applications of and results of the analyses with the use of rhetorical style as a functional analytical category to delimit generic, register and stylistic variations of media discourse including its subgenres (e.g. headlines).

The codification of humanitarian action and humanitarian aid in Serbia belongs to the broader area of social politics and the civil sector, which are shaped under the influence of social, economic and political circumstances. The main analytical vein in this paper was focused on decyphering the ambivalent face of humanitarianism or rather humanitarian practices, which stem from concrete social, economic and political circumstances in Serbia. One of the social playgrounds of humanitarianism is the media, which is an important transmitter of the message and shapes public opinion in the zones of perception and value systems. This is why humanitarianism is placed in the narrative discourse of the media as a case study. The analysis is based on a fundamental question – how do personal stories of poverty and illness get constructed as humanitarian stories as social problems? The research is based on the analysis of newspaper articles shaped into narrative mechanisms in order to construct “subsequent” realities with which people identify.

The article refers to a model, proposed by Warnke and Spitzüller (2008), of the so-called multi-level linguistic discourse analysis (DIMEAN). The model, which in a way sums up the current developments in the thriving German discourse linguistics, combines discourse analysis on the level of intertextuality, transtextuality and discourse actors. The aim of the present article is to provide an outline of the basic assumptions of the model and to illustrate them, using a selected analysis as an example.

This paper looks at selected one-sided pro-kremlin websites in Slovakia through thematic discursive analysis. Enforcement of one-sided propagandistic thoughts and opinions, primarily through freely available internet media, has become one of the most important aspects of hybrid warfare in today's world. The aim of this paper was to identify the specific goals of Russian propaganda and to clarify in what ways through language resources is propaganda spread on pro-kremlin websites. The results of the analysis are interpreted and word resources used by these websites are presented at the end of the paper. The results prove that pro-kremlin disinformation websites use word and language manipulation which helps in the acceptance and spreading of unilaterally focused and distorted information in Slovakia. The paper is trying to continue and complement current researches devoted to the problematic of pro-kremlin websites in central Europe.

The author of the article has two research objectives. The first one is to describe and analyse the main persuasion strategies used in multimodal TV features. The article provides an outline of the genre reflecting anthropological and cultural patterns of the contemporary media discourse (i.a. pursuit of the sensational, tabloid stylistics and persuasiveness of information). The article also highlights some aspects, changes and tendencies in transmission and reception of the media text, in which verbal components have been eliminated by visual components. The second purpose of the article is to overview verbal and non-verbal (visual) forms of persuasion in TV features (e.g. preparing TV programmes by reporters, and value of negative facts and news from social life). That part of the article is a case study of the Polish TV feature entitled “Uwaga”.

This paper, drawing on insights from discourse-historical approach to discourse analysis and applying Conceptual Metaphor theory, examines selected BUILDING metaphors of the welfare state in a corpus of four British newspapers. The paper compares the use of these metaphors in the four newspapers and considers their argumentative function, finding that while the metaphors largely overlap between the newspapers, their argumentative functions are more though not completely distinct, legitimising government reforms of the welfare state in the conservative newspapers, with the left-leaning newspapers using them to support and oppose these reforms.

The article represents features of the media image of language in the city newspaper. Semantic and stylistic characterization of the use of the lexeme ‘language’ in the newspaper text reveals the specificity of the media image. The material for the semantic and stylistic analysis of the interpretative field of the concept ‘language’ is the Russian mass city newspaper “Kuznetskiy rabochiy” (Novokuznetsk). Content analysis of the newspaper texts of 2002–2018 revealed regularities of the actualization of the semantics of the lexeme ‘language’ in the contexts. In the newspaper texts, the language is realized, primarily, as a system of the verbal means used to express the national identity, to increase the level of education and spiritual culture, and to improve the mutual understanding. In some degree, the language policy controls and corrects the state of this system. The newspaper texts demonstrate that the speech behavior of a modern person realizes not only the harmonious (the topic of creativity) but also the incorrect use of the language system (lie, verbal aggressiveness, errors, lack of the language taste). The estimation is explicated through the language game, the use of phraseological units, epithets, iterations, and antitheses. These devices create the meliorative contexts as well as the pejorative ones. The most emphasized semantic aspect “Language and national identity” is formed in the newspaper texts, primarily, due to the discourse specificity of the regional edition. One of the local historical dominants of the regional edition is tied to the topic of the destiny of the small nation. Apart from the materials about the Shor language, the main semantic aspect of the media image of language in the examined newspaper texts of the 21st century is the aspect “language and education”.
