한국 신문 보도문의 ‘개입(Engagement)’ 표현에 대한 연구

Abstract

We explored 'Engagement' in Korean, based on Appraisal Theory with newspaper reports in <Donga-ilbo>, <Joongang-ilbo> and <Hankyoreh- Shinmun>. 'Engagement' provides the means for the authorial voice to position itself with respect to, and hence to ‘engage’ with, the other voices and alternative positions construed as being in play in the current communicative context. 'Engagement' in Korean is divided into four, as follows. First, we cover 'Disclaim' by which some prior utterance or some alternative position is invoked so as to be directly rejected, replaced or held to be unsustainable. This is the domain of negation and concession/counter- expectation. This is most typically achieved through words as anida, anta, motada, eopda, etc. and geuleona, hajiman, etc. Second, 'Endorse' is a sort of 'Proclaim'. We refer to 'Endorse' by which propositions sourced to external sources are construed by the authorial voice as correct, valid, undeniable or otherwise maximally warrantable. This is most typically achieved through periphrastic constructions as X-e ttareumyeon, X-reul bomyeon, X-e/eseo (bodeunsi), josa/hwagin gyeolgwa, etc. and words as natanada, deureonada, josadoeda, bakhyeojida, hwagindoeda, etc. Third, 'Entertain' is a expression by the authorial voice. It indicates that its position is but one of a number of possible positions. This is most typically achieved through periphrastic constructions as -neun jeonmangi jibaejeogida, -eul ganeungseongi nopda, -eul manhada, -eul sudo issda, -eul geoseulo boida, -eul geoseulo gwancheugdoeda, -eul geoseulo yesangdoeda, etc. Fourth, We deal with 'Attribute' which disassociates the proposition from the text’s internal authorial voice by attributing it so some external source. This is most typically achieved through periphrastic constructions as -go gangjohada, -go malhada, -go balghida, etc. and -neun gwancheugi naoda/issda/…, -neun mali naoda/issda/…, -neun somuni naoda/issda/…, etc.
