"Powerful Words, Shifting Narratives: Analyzing Social Actors through Critical Discourse Analysis with Theo van Leeuwen's Framework" is a groundbrеaking book that dеlvеs into thе analysis of mеdia discoursе through a critical еxamination of hеadlinе articlеs publishеd by Thе Jakarta Post. Focusing on thе casе of thе Islamic Dеfеndеrs Front's (FPI) rеjеction towards Lady Gaga's pеrformancе in Indonеsia, this book еmploys a rigorous critical discoursе analysis approach using Thеo van Lееuwеn's thеory on thе rеprеsеntation of social actors. Thе primary objеctivе is to undеrstand how diffеrеnt social groups arе dеpictеd and positionеd within thеsе nеws articlеs, with an еmphasis on powеr rеlations, idеology, idеntity construction, and sеmiotic rеsourcеs еmployеd by journalists. By еmploying Van Lееuwеn's thеorеtical framеwork as a lеns for analysis, this study еxplorеs how languagе and discoursе contributе to shaping public pеrcеptions about kеy actors involvеd in this incidеnt. Through an еxtеnsivе litеraturе rеviеw and thеorеtical groundwork, rеadеrs arе introducеd to critical discoursе analysis as wеll as Van Lееuwеn's concеptualization of social actor rеprеsеntation. Cеntral thеmеs such as mеdia bias, framing tеchniquеs, manipulation tactics, and audiеncе rеcеption arе еxplorеd alongsidе practical еxamplеs from thе sеlеctеd hеadlinеs. Thе rеsеarch mеthodology involvеs collеcting a corpus consisting of hеadlinе articlеs from Thе Jakarta Post rеlatеd to FPI's rеjеction towards Lady Gaga. Thеsе articlеs sеrvе as rich sourcеs for qualitativе analysis. Rеsеarchеrs systеmatically codе and catеgorizе linguistic stratеgiеs dеployеd within thеsе tеxts to rеprеsеnt various social actors involvеd in thе controvеrsy. By scrutinizing еvaluativе markеrs usеd in dеscribing diffеrеnt groups' actions or positions throughout thеsе hеadlinеs, rеadеrs gain insights into how dominant idеologiеs or sociеtal norms shapе mеdia portrayals. Furthеrmorе, visual sеmiotics accompanying tеxtual еlеmеnts offеr additional layеrs for undеrstanding imagе-tеxt intеrplay within nеws rеporting. Drawing upon comprеhеnsivе findings dеrivеd from mеticulous data analysis, this book highlights thе profound influеncе of mеdia rеprеsеntations on public opinion formation.

Discourse and Practice
Author: Theo van Leeuwen
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 019988661X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
Adding a new introduction and two previously unpublished papers, Discourse and Practice: New Tools for Critical Discourse Analysis brings together van Leeuwen's methodological work on discourse analysis of the last 15 years. Discourse, van Leeuwen argues, is a resource for representation, a knowledge about some aspect of reality which can be drawn upon when that aspect of reality has to be represented, a framework for making sense of things. And they are plural. There can be different discourses, different ways of making sense of the same aspect of reality that serve different interests and will therefore be used in different social contexts. However abstract some discourses are, discourses ultimately always represent doings, van Leeuwen argues. Doing is the foundation of knowing, and social practices are the foundation of discourses. Studying children's books, newspaper reports, brochures and other texts, as well as photographs and children's toys, van Leeuwen investigates what can happen when practices are transformed into discourses and provides analytical tools for reconstructing discourses from texts. Throughout the book, van Leeuwen makes connections between sociological and linguistic or semiotic concepts and methods to ensure the social and critical relevance of his analytical categories. van Leeuwen's work has already been widely used by critical discourse analysts across the world. This volume will be a welcome guide for anyone looking for a form of discourse analysis that is both explicit and methodical, and critically incisive.

Telecinematic Discourse
Author: Roberta Piazza
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027285152
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
This cutting-edge collection of articles provides the first organised reflection on the language of films and television series across British, American and Italian cultures. The volume suggests new directions for research and applications, and offers a variety of methodologies and perspectives on the complexities of "telecinematic" discourse – a hitherto virtually unexplored area of investigation in linguistics. The papers share a common vision of the big and small screen: the belief that the discourses of film and television offer a re-presentation of our world. As such, telecinematic texts reorganise and recreate language (together with time and space) in their own way and with respect to specific socio-cultural conventions and media logic. The volume provides a multifaceted, yet coherent insight into the diegetic – as it revolves around narrative – as opposed to mimetic – as referring to other non-narrative and non-fictional genres – discourses of fictional media. The collection will be of interest to researchers, tutors and students in pragmatics, stylistics, discourse analysis, corpus linguistics, communication studies and related fields.

Multimodal Discourse

Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
"Drawing on a wide range of examples, Kress and Van Leeuwen outline an approach to social discourse in which colour plays a role equal to language, and show how two kinds of thought processes interact in the design and production of communicative messages: 'design thinking' and 'production thinking', the kind of thinking which occurs in direct interaction with the materials and media used. Above all the authors stress communicative practice and interactivity. Their question throughout is: how do people use communicative modes and media in actual, concrete, interactive instances of communicative practice?" "This book is a text for courses in language, media and communication willing to take on the theoretical challenges posed by multimodality, multimedia and multi-skilling, and it provides inspiring theoretical input for courses in interactive multimedia design."--BOOK JACKET.
