Cíle předmětu
The main goal of the one-semester compulsory course Text and Discourse Analysis is to introduce students to the discipline, both by presenting and applying its conceptual apparatus and through analyzing specific texts. Due to the focus of the Master’s Degree in Translation studies programme within which the course is offered, all work with text will be conceived as preparatory to treating texts within the translatorial profession. The keywords of the course will be ‘text function’ and ‘communicative purpose of the text’; texts will be analyzed in a manner allowing for basing the potential subsequent process of translation on functional approaches to translation (modern theory of skopos). At the onset of the course, students will receive a portfolio of texts in Czech and English (supplemented with texts in other target languages in the case of students of translation in combination with other languages) which they will get acquainted with in the beginning of the course and which will be referred to in different contexts throughout the course. The course will combine a lecture and a seminar, both forms being used freely within the 90-minute teaching blocks. Another emphasis of the course will be its contrastive orientation: texts sharing some con/textual parameters and differing in others will be compared and differences in genre conventions characterizing different cultures will be stressed in preparation for the process of translation. Students will be expected to prepare for the lessons throughout the semester; the preparation will consist in analyzing set texts, modifying texts based on set parameters, and searching for texts meeting set parameters. Credits will be granted upon passing a practically oriented written exam.
Osnova
  • (1) Course objectives, pathways to achieving them. Course organization instructions: teaching block structuring, requirements placed on students, course completion requirements.
  • (2) Concepts “text” and “discourse”, seven standards of textuality, relations between “genre”, “discourse” and “text” (based on Hatim and Mason).
  • (3) Functionalist approaches to text: text typologies proposed by Jakobson/Bűhler/Newmark/Reiss, text functions and language functions; Hallidayian theory of language and language functions based on Halliday.
  • (4) Register and context of situation; language variation – by user and use; field, tenor and mode of discourse.
  • (5) Communication dimension of context/context of situation; application within the skopos theory; text intentionality and acceptability.
  • (6) Pragmatic dimension of context, illocutionary structure of text, basic concepts in conversational analysis; Grice’s cooperation principle; inference, relevance.
  • (7) Semiotic dimension of context, translator as an intercultural communicator.
  • (8) Cohesion and coherence in text and translation.
  • (9) Lexical cohesion; collocations. Written and spoken texts.
  • (10) Text types: argumentative, expository, instructional, descriptive, narrative.
  • (11) Text structure.
  • (12) Thematic structure of texts; functional sentence perspective vs. iconicity in language.
  • (13) Intertextuality, signals of intertextuality, typology of intertextual reference; text hybridization.
