Cíle předmětu
The course aims to investigate the linguistic aspects of media communication with a particular focus on analysis of printed news texts. The topics will include the specific constraints of mass media communication; the role of news values in the process of selection of news items and their mediation by means of language; the structure of news articles; cohesion and coherence in news texts and their role as regards the choice of lexical items and syntactic structures; the recommendations issued by media corporations (e.g. the BBC) to its journalists and correspondents about the 'proper style' of their stories, etc. The core textbook is Fowler's Language in the News, which will be supplemented by topical studies in the discourse analysis of media (news) texts, e.g. the function of headlines from the point of view of the relevance theory; gender bias and stereotypes in news reporting; reporting on ethnic minorities, etc.
