초록
This paper seeks to explore the linguistic and discoursal realizations as well as the hybrid/evolutionary nature, of ‘news analysis’, a new genre in Korean newspapers, within the framework of ‘genre analysis’ (Swales 1990; Ayers 2008) and ‘media discourse’ (van Dijk 1988; Bell 1991). On the discourse level, the present analysis examines 'headlines', 'layout', and 'discourse structure' of the new genre, and shows that it is composed of four main discourse categories (introducing topics, providing background, analyzing/diagnosing, and providing argumentation for the analysis/diagnosis). In addition, it demonstrates that the last two categories are further substantiated by more specific speech acts (such as 'interpreting' and 'predicting', etc.) and various rhetorical structures (including 'evidence' and 'elaboration', etc.), respectively. The genre turns out to have some linguistic characteristics as well, in terms of the uses of present/future tense, direct quotations, speech verbs, and textual and interactional metadiscourse markers. Based on the results, this paper suggests not only that 'news analysis' has a hybrid nature, revealing more similarities with 'editorials' rather than 'news reportage', but also that it is still undergoing further changes in 'layout', 'discourse structure' and 'expressing ideologies'. This article concludes with some discussion on the hybrid/evolutionary nature of the genre, drawing on some theoretical concepts including ‘genre chains’, ‘intertextuality’, ‘macro-argument structure’, and the possibility of manipulation.
Abstract
This paper seeks to explore the linguistic and discoursal realizations as well as the hybrid/evolutionary nature, of ‘news analysis’, a new genre in Korean newspapers, within the framework of ‘genre analysis’ (Swales 1990; Ayers 2008) and ‘media discourse’ (van Dijk 1988; Bell 1991). On the discourse level, the present analysis examines 'headlines', 'layout', and 'discourse structure' of the new genre, and shows that it is composed of four main discourse categories (introducing topics, providing background, analyzing/diagnosing, and providing argumentation for the analysis/diagnosis). In addition, it demonstrates that the last two categories are further substantiated by more specific speech acts (such as 'interpreting' and 'predicting', etc.) and various rhetorical structures (including 'evidence' and 'elaboration', etc.), respectively. The genre turns out to have some linguistic characteristics as well, in terms of the uses of present/future tense, direct quotations, speech verbs, and textual and interactional metadiscourse markers. Based on the results, this paper suggests not only that 'news analysis' has a hybrid nature, revealing more similarities with 'editorials' rather than 'news reportage', but also that it is still undergoing further changes in 'layout', 'discourse structure' and 'expressing ideologies'. This article concludes with some discussion on the hybrid/evolutionary nature of the genre, drawing on some theoretical concepts including ‘genre chains’, ‘intertextuality’, ‘macro-argument structure’, and the possibility of manipulation.
