(Neoklasyczna) analiza retoryczna George’a A. Kennedy’ego w perspektywie medioznawczej

Author(s): Monika Worsowicz / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The chapter describes the method of rhetorical analysis by George A. Kennedy and its modification to meet the needs of media analysis. It includes a discussion of the objectives and subject of research as well as methods of analysis, taking into account the possibilities and limitations that the tool created for the needs of biblical exegesis puts on the researcher of the content of contemporary media. The proposed approach can also be used by students when writing bachelor's and master's theses.

(Re) deifniranje stilske obilježnosti u književnom tekstu

(Re) deifniranje stilske obilježnosti u književnom tekstu

Author(s): Tin Lemac / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 8-9/2020

In this paper we discuss about cathegory of style marks in literary text. This cathegory was primarly noted in linguistic stylistics and reffers to the status of one linguistic element which is in deflection of the grammatical norm of some language. Her application and formalization in literary stylistics are in the middle of some very problematic points which we discuss in this paper. After discussion of legitimity and possibility of this analytical method in literary stylistics, we propose theoretical model in which we redefine this cathegory and use it in analysis of literary text. Theoretical and methodological frame of this paper is based on linguistic stylistics, literary stylistics, poetics, stylistic critic and estehtics.

(Не)познатият език: Гергьовден при бесарабските българи

(Не)познатият език: Гергьовден при бесарабските българи

Author(s): Svetlana Georgieva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2019

Folk-calendar terminology is an expression of the national specificity of cultures. This makes its studying promising within the framework of the tendencies for ‘European-style thinking’ which have emerged since the beginning of the 21st century. The article examines St. George’s Day customs and rituals in their ethnolinguistic aspect. G’erg’ewd’en (Vch, Cub, Chsh), G’ergyovd’en (A, G, Kam, Dl, Z), G’ergyochd’en (A) , G’ergyouud’en(Kr), Gyorguvd’en (Kul), Gyorguud’en (R), Gerg’ofden (Cyr), G’argyovd’an (DN), Gergiuden (Or) – the largest and richest – in a ritual sense – spring religious vestive-ritual complex of the Bessarabian Bulgarians, which is celebrated on the 6th of May (on the 23rd of April old style) and is dedicated to the Christian saint George, who is – in the folk tradition – the protector of shepherds and flocks. The paper attempts to systematize and explore the peculiarities of the cultural dialect associated with St. George’s Day ritual sequence.

A Comparative Analysis of Translations of Lucian Blaga’s Poetry into English

Author(s): Alexandra Mitrea / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2020

The complexity of Lucian Blaga’s poetry is a matter of common knowledge. Part of this complexity is related to the elements of prosody that Blaga skilfully employs, to say nothing of the philosophical vein which infuses his writings, and which derives, understandably, from his philosophical work. Mention should also be made of the lyrical character of Blaga’s dramatic works, which adds significantly to the effort of translating his writings into English, or any other language for that matter. In what follows, we intend to offer a bird’s eye view of the volumes that have been translated into English and to analyse a selection of poems comparatively, in order to signal challenges and discrepancies, born in the process of transferring literary material from Romanian to English, and to point out what has been lost, and, if that be the case, what has been gained in the translation process.

A Comparison of 20th Century Theories of Style (in the Context of Czech and British Scholarly Discourses)

Author(s): Michal Křístek / Language(s): English

The book is focused on a comparison of theoretical approaches to issues of style, in the context of Czech and Anglo-Saxon (especially British) scholarly discourses. The aim was to show and compare different methodological approaches based on different theoretical bases – for this reason, two different cultural contexts were selected, attention being paid also to mutual contacts within these contexts. The 20th century was chosen intentionally, as the period during which, in both of the respective contexts, stylistics was constituted as a modern scholarly discipline rooted in the fields of linguistics and literary theory. The book is aimed at members of academic communities, at teachers as well as at students, especially at those focusing on Czech and English studies.

A COMPARISON OF NICHE ESTABLISHMENTS
IN ENGLISH RESEARCH ARTICLE INTRODUCTIONS PUBLISHED IN INTERNATIONAL AND THAI JOURNALS

A COMPARISON OF NICHE ESTABLISHMENTS IN ENGLISH RESEARCH ARTICLE INTRODUCTIONS PUBLISHED IN INTERNATIONAL AND THAI JOURNALS

Author(s): Wirada Amnuai / Language(s): English,Thai Issue: 2/2021

The present study looked closely at the niche establishments in the introduction sections of English research articles written by Thai authors and published in local Thai journals and compared them to those found in introduction sections written by non-Thai authors published in international and high indexed journals. Each of the two corpora contains forty introductory sections. The analysis was based on the frameworks of Swales (2004) and Lim (2012). It was found that the use of niche establishments in the international corpus was higher than that in the Thai corpus. In the Thai corpus, “Stressing insufficient research” was the highest strategy, but “Revealing methodological limitations” was completely absent. It is expected that the results will provide practical guidance for novice writers to write their research introduction sections with informative and convincing niche establishments and, to some extent, the results should also benefit English writing classes, especially in Thailand.

A estatística textual computadorizada e a literatura brasileira: uma análise do romance Miragem, de Coelho Neto

A estatística textual computadorizada e a literatura brasileira: uma análise do romance Miragem, de Coelho Neto

Author(s): Emanoel Cesar Pires de Assis,Daniel Lopes / Language(s): Portuguese Issue: 18/2019

In this article, we reveal, through a stylometric reading, characteristics of Coelho Neto’s style in Miragem (1895). In addition, we compare the style of the writer with the style of three contemporary writers: Aluísio Azevedo, O Cortiço (1890); Adolfo Caminha, Bom-Crioulo (1895); and Machado de Assis, Dom Casmurro (1900). The research methodology adopted in this study is supported by stylometry (Brandão, 2006, Cúrcio, 2006, 2007, 2013, Freitas, 2007, Paiva, 2013, Assis, 2013 and Silva, 2014) and dialogues, whenever possible, with the literary criticism directed to Coelho Neto and his work, mainly in relation to his style. Among our findings, we have found that the uses of adjectives, verbs, and adverbs in Coelho Neto’s criticism of the composition of his style are apparently normal when compared to the style of other writers.

A koronavírus-járvány metaforáiról

A koronavírus-járvány metaforáiról

Author(s): Anita Schirm / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 2/2021

News about COVID19 has become part of our everyday life. Language users created pandemic related metaphors right away, and due to their explaining and visualizing power, these metaphors spread soon afterward. This paper investigates the rhetorical pictures born during the pandemic and shows why these metaphors are so frequent in articles about the pandemic. Metaphors in communication about COVID19 visualize, explain, evoke emotions, convince, and sometimes also manipulate public opinion, since the wording in the mass media greatly impacts the way people think about the pandemic crisis. By using the theoretical framework of the cognitive theory of metaphors, the paper shows some verbal and visual metaphors related to coronavirus from a corpus collected from news, ads and community facility advertising.

A nyelvváltozatok stilisztikai szerepe Székely Csaba Vitéz Mihály című komikus történelmi tragédiájában

A nyelvváltozatok stilisztikai szerepe Székely Csaba Vitéz Mihály című komikus történelmi tragédiájában

Author(s): Ibolya Czetter / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 3/2015

The focus of my paper is the play Michael the Brave by Csaba Székely, a playwright from Marosvásárhely (Târgu-Mureş). The play was written for the National Drama Competition announced by the Weöres Sándor Theatre in 2013. In my lecture I am going to investigate the play from the perspective of its linguistic complexity and the stylistic functions of its language variations. The play is remarkable not only for its subject matter but also for its extraordinary style. The piece is set at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries, focusing on the rise and fall of Michael the Brave, the Prince of Wallachia, who united the three Principalities under a single rule. The play is a risky venture also for its peculiar perspective. The present is juxtaposed with the past, pushing historical, social and political issues into the foreground in an uncompromising, selfironic way while utilizing a dense network of references to our Hungarian present. Csaba Székely has written a parody of a history play, a postmodern pastiche, in which the duality of the historic credibility and the fictional world is also projected onto its stylistic-linguistic character. Hence it is worth investigating how the multiple stylistic variations are created, each assuming its own perspective and truth.

A PRAGMA-STYLISTIC ANALYSIS OF SPONTANEOUS SPEECH – EARLY-MORNING RADIO SHOW

Author(s): Cristina Goanță / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 01 Supp/2019

NOWADAYS, RADIO IS THE MOST ACCESSIBLE AND FASTEST MEANS OF GIVING INFORMATION, WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY THE LARGE NUMBER OF CHANNELS IN THE MASSMEDIA NETWORK. MANY RADIO JOURNALISTS HAVE USED A RADIOPHONIC STYLE WHOSE TRAITS ARE ORALITY AND INFORMALITY. THE JOURNALIST’S SPEECH MUST BE SIMPLE, SHORT AND CLEAR. THE LISTENERS TAKE FROM IT CERTAIN EXPRESSIONS, FORMS OF GREETING, AND NEOLOGISMS TOO. THE CONNEXION BETWEEN LISTENERS AND THE RADIO HOST IS ONE FULL OF SERIOSITY, THE HOST PLAYS HIS ROLE DEPENDING ON THE PUBLIC, AND THEY SEE THE MESSAGE THROUGH THE HOST S EYES. THE TWO RADIO SHOWS WE WILL TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION ARE CRONICA CÂRCOTAȘILOR WHICH PLAYS FROM 7 TO 10 AM, DURING RADIO CONTACT KISS FM, HOSTED BY SERBAN HUIDU AND MIHAI GAINUSA AND NAȚIUNEA 21,WHICH PLAYS FROM 10 TO 11 AM, RADIO 21 HOSTED BY ANDREI GHEORGHE. THESE SHOWS HAVE A LARGE NUMBER OF LISTENERS BECAUSE OF THEIR RADIO HOSTS SUCCESS WHO ARE KNOWN TO BE FAMOUS. THE ARTICLE WILL EXAMINE THE LINGVSTIC CHARACTERS OF THE JOURNALISTIC SPEECH AND THE METHOD OF TRANSMITING A MESSAGE. THESE SHOWS HAVE BEEN RECORDED DURING THE 27TH OF OCTOBER AND THE 13TH OF NOVEMBER 2003.

A Study of the Language Characteristics of Types of Business English Speeches from the Perspective of Functional Linguistics

A Study of the Language Characteristics of Types of Business English Speeches from the Perspective of Functional Linguistics

Author(s): Xian Wang,Huixian Li / Language(s): English Issue: 21/2021

Business English speeches are an essential form of business communication, and the question of how to improve their effectiveness is essential to successful business communication. Based on a self-built corpus of Business English speeches, this paper studies the relationship of sentence structure, business vocabulary, and speech type with business speeches by using a quantitative statistical method. It reveals that the sentence structure used by the speaker changes according to the content and type of speech, while the proportion of business vocabulary relative to the type of business speech stays at a low level of 5%, with little variance. Sentence structure and the frequency of business vocabulary should be adapted according to the type of speech so that positive effectiveness can be ensured.

A szecesszió stílussajátosságai Csáth Géza korai novellisztikájában

A szecesszió stílussajátosságai Csáth Géza korai novellisztikájában

Author(s): Adrienn Károly / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 2/2018

Art Nouveau can be interpreted as a general, all-European movement of the late 19th century art rejuvenation, but also as a stylistic orientation. Artistic works created during their existence often are not homogeneous in their style, but show a specific mixture of the trends of the era. However, its typical features include decorativity and stylization. The paper illustrates the features of the Art Nouveau style by examining the texts of the short stories of Géza Csáth’s early pathway, The Magician’s Garden and and The Deputy Judge’s Family and Other Stories, and outlines the verbal and visual intermediality in literature. Géza Csáth’s use of Art Nouveau language is characterized by the use of decorative motifs, the use of sensual sensations with decorative motifs, in which the basic motifs of secessionist literature (flower, garden, death, seduction) also appear in his texts.

A Szigeti veszedelem jelzőrendszere

A Szigeti veszedelem jelzőrendszere

Author(s): Ilona Rajsli / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 3/2016

Attributives are among the most prominent stylistic devices in Zrinyi’s epic poem, The Siege of Sziget. In our paper we study constructions with attributes of qualification from the aspect of grammatical category and structure. Regarding grammatical category – next to adjectival attributes – attributive nouns are extremely powerful and of condensing nature, while participles as attributes have special stylistic effect; all three types are found in the corpus. Structurally there are three types of attributives: simple (containing one attribute), multiple and cumulative attributives. In the latter type the attributes in the structure can be co-ordinate, and in this case they semantically strengthen each other, or the sequence of attributes entwine and thus have the character of gradation. There are a number of attributes which function as a decorative element or are there for the sake of prose rhythm or rhyming, and they are often recurrent; they function as kind of permanent attributives, creating thus the typical “Zrinyi-attributes”. Synesthetic or metaphoric attributives also give a special atmosphere to this epic poem. Next to the stylistic function of the attributives semasiological aspects were also considered alongside the contextual issues of pictorialness, metaphoricalness and attributes, for example, attributive constructions built into similes.

A. H. Tammsaare’s Epic Musicality

A. H. Tammsaare’s Epic Musicality

Author(s): Arne Merilai / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2021

A. H. Tammsaare was drawn to the musical tonality of prose. Importantly though, he did not wholeheartedly embrace sound patterning as a mode of writing. Rather, he preferred a semantic widening of ordinary language within a comprehensively holistic “spherical music”. In his novels, we can detect a deliberate use of rhythmic motion in sentences. This is evident primarily in the wealth of lexical and syntactic repetitions resulting in a parallelism of patterns. An obvious, although discreet, rhythmic design emerges in the thesis-antithesis-synthesis parataxis the core words of which are the adversative and coordinating conjunctions aga (‘but’), and integrative ometi (‘yet’, ‘indeed’). The frequency with which these bound conjunctions occur in Tammsaare’s work surpasses that of ordinary speech by about four times, and it is twice as high as the statistical mean for literary texts. One might call this expressive of an epic but-mantra, a prose-poetic but-meter, or a narrative polysyndeton, and, from a philosophical point of view, a but-dialectic. Whenever a reader fails to appreciate Tammsaare’s underlying tone and does not discern the emotional flow of longing scepticism that issues from his dyadic-triadic chains, this pervasive, yet inconspicuously arguing, textual mode may seem unduly pretentious. Indeed, there is nothing to prevent a prose text from featuring a poetic style that is rooted in a poetry-like, paradigmatic parallelism as the poetic principle of formal and semantic equivalence.

African elements (Africanisms) in modern American English

African elements (Africanisms) in modern American English

Author(s): Elnara Putayeva / Language(s): English Issue: 55/2021

The article deals with the influence of words of African origin on the formation of American English [AE] word stock. It provides new interpretation of Africanisms and shows the significance of this part of vocabulary in determining the characteristics of the American culture. The investigation is based on the existing sources (mainly lexicographic works) and is aimed at their new structural and functional analysis. As a result of the research, it became clear that most of the words of African origin were introduced to English spoken in America in the 17th century and some in the 18th and 19th centuries. The number of words and expressions from African languages that were introduced was closely related to African Americans’ way of living, their spiritual believes, rituals and attitudes and various objects used by them such as weapons. The word stock of the English language was enriched due to the assimilation of loanwords from languages of Africans living in America. A significant contribution to AE is the great amount of words naming animals, fruit, foodstuff, names of states, rivers and lakes, cities and towns.

Agalma, Sokrat i Alkibijad

Author(s): Jacques Lacan / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 1-2/2019

Zadnji sam vam put kao svojevrsnu štafetu povjerio riječ za koju sam vam ujedno rekao da joj do idućega našeg puta ostavljam svu njezinu vrijednost enigme - riječ agalma. Nisam vjerovao da ću to tako dobro reći. Za mnoge je enigma bila tako potpuna da su se pitali: Što? Što je rekao? Možda vi znate? Onima koji su izražavali takav nemir netko je iz moje kuće, naposljetku, mogao dati odgovor - što sve ukazuje na to da barem u mojem slučaju gimnazijsko obrazovanje ima svoju svrhu - da spomenuta riječ znači ukras, nakit. Bilo kako bilo, to je tek samo odgovor na prvu ruku, to je tek ono što svi moraju pitati. Agallo znači ukrasiti, okititi, a agalma bi na prvi pogled zbilja bila ukras i kićenje. Pojam kićenja ipak nije tako jednostavan te se odmah vidi kako nas sve to daleko može odvesti. Pred čim se kitimo? Zašto se kititi? I čime? Ako je riječ o nekoj središnjoj točki, jasno je da nas mnogi putovi k njoj moraju voditi. Ali eto, ja sam ovdje namjerno zadržao tu riječ, agalma, i iz nje načinio stožer daljnjeg tijeka mojega izlaganja. Nemojte u tome vidjeti nikakvu sklonost raritetima, nego to da nas u jednom tekstu kojemu pripisujemo krajnju rigoroznost, u tom Simpoziju, nešto upućuje na tu bitnu točku. [...]
