THEORY, METHOD AND PRACTICE IN MEDIA DISCOURSE ????????????? IBD

Sinopse

The discourse power theory of Michel Foucault, French postmodernist thinker,áreveals the constructive function and power characteristics of discourseâÇÖ as a social practice. Language, as a carrier reflecting social reality, is associated withápower, society and ideology. This constructive discourse theory enlightens andástudies many disciplines of the humanities and social sciences. Since the lateá1980s, media discourse has attracted linguistsâÇÖ attention as a language in use, asáwell as its special textual structure and social and cultural practice. Some analytical methods have emerged at a historic moment, and critical discourse research isáone of them. It originated in the 1980s. With the development of a large numberáof studies, people find it is far from possible to answer research questions only byáanalyzing a single text, and that analysis will bring personal prejudice. In orderáto make research more comprehensive and reliable, people begin to use corpus.áThe method of studying large-scale texts has its own advantages and draws onáeach otherâÇÖs strengths to complement each otherâÇÖs weaknesses. In the past 10áyears, corpus-based critical discourse research has been increasingly adopted byáChinese social scientists. This book focuses on the reports on low-carbon in theámainstream newspapers and periodicals of China, Britain and the United Statesásince 2000. It analyses discourse construction around low-carbon, and systematically applies corpus and critical discourse analysis to media discourse analysis.áCombine qualitative and quantitative research effectively. The linguistic examples provided by corpus are beyond the intuitive research method, and the criticaládiscourse analysis method makes the examples provided by corpus clear. We find many interesting phenomena that need to be further investigated from word frequency information. Studies show that the analysis of word clusters and collocations, accompanied by corpus retrieval, adds qualitative elements to quantitativeáanalysis and makes the results more reliable and comprehensive. The combinationáof corpus findings and social context makes us realize more clearly that discourseáis the reflection of ideology. This study is expected to attract more scholars to apply this method to language-related research in the field of social sciences. æú¬ä¹ªèüÜçäªä¸¡èï±ç¾Ää¸ëåó½ä¸»æµüæèÑåêè 2000 å¹´ä»ÑæÑÑåà³äºÄä½Ä çó³çÜäæèÑéüôï¼îåêåæžÈåó´ç»òä½Äçó³çÜäè»Ñ軡建æžäï¼îè¾â系统åú°å°å軡æûÖåºôåÆîæë¹åêñè»Ñ軡åêåæžÈ çÜäæû¹æ³òçö¿äºÄåªÆä½ôè»Ñ軡åêåæžÈ両ï¼îå°åå«ÜæǺåÆîå«ÜéçÅçáö究æúëæòêç»ôåÈêèµ·æÑÑaÇé軡æûÖåºôæÅÈ ä¾óçÜä軡è¿Çä¾ïè»üæÿ»åç¡çó´èºëçÜäçáö究æû¹æ³òæëÇä¸ìèâ½åÅèï¼îæë¹åêñè»Ñ軡çáö究åêåæžÈçÜäæû¹æ³òåÅê 使軡æûÖåºôæëÇæÅÈä¾óçÜää¾ïè»üåÅÿå¾ùæ¸àæÖ°æÿÄäºåaÇéæêæ们ä»Äè»ìéóæä¿¡æü»ä¸¡åÅæçİ諸åñÜæúëè¶úçÜä æúëå¾àè¿óä¸Çæ¡ÑèÇâ廟çÜäçİ象ï¼óçáö究衿æÿÄè»ìä¸óï¹ææÈ¡éàìè»ìåêåæžÈä¼´éÜÅçÑÇ軡æûÖåºôæúÇç´óæÑÑ èÇâ廟åà¶ä¸èä¸ïæûç両çÜäåêåæžÈ为å«ÜéçÅçÜäåêåæžÈåóžæ·»äºåå«ÜæǺçÜäæêÈ份ï¼î使ç»ôæžúæó´åÅ»éÑáï¹æ æó´åà¿éÑó
