SPECIFICS OF INFORMATION MICRODISCOURSE OF EVENT MACRODISCOURSE (ON THE MATERIAL OF NEWS ARTICLES OF THEMATIC GROUP «ARCTIC»)
Abstract
The article aims to identify the specifics of the information microdiscourse of the event macrodiscourse based on the analysis of an English newspaper article devoted to the impact of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill on BP’s work in the Arctic. The author defines such concepts as an event situation, event discourse, information discourse as a genre type of event discourse. The algorithm for analyzing a news text is proposed, including the definition of its content-thematic structure, as well as the features of its lexical content and the use of grammatical forms. Markers of the newspaper text’s belonging to one or another genre and thematic microdiscourse of the event macrodiscourse are revealed. At the end of the article a number of conclusions are drawn regarding the main features of news texts of the event discourse, their focus on the information function and the neutral-objective style of presenting information.
