Retoryczne ukształtowanie komunikatów dotyczących zdrowia na portalu „Twój Styl”
The rhetorical structure of health-related content based on examples from the “Twój Styl” website

Summary/Abstract: The article offers an analysis of texts posted on the Twój Styl website tagged as pertaining to “medicine” from the perspective of rhetorical strategies deployed therein. The research material has been divided into categories on the basis of the character of the statement (conscious choice of convention) and subsequently analyzed with the view to capturing the linguistic and extra-linguistic tools employed to affect the recipients (from capturing the readers’ attention to propagating specific attitudes). The study conceived in such a way enables an overview of communication strategies used by the authors to attract the recipients. The main conclusion of the study is that health-related content is intentionally shaped in such a way that would persuade the addressees to embrace particular behaviours.
