The present paper focuses on some aspects of the so called wooden language in the german newspaper published in Romania from the pre-revolutionary period, to be exact in the forms of expression of this language identified in the condolences messages on the death of the communist leaders Josef Wissarionowitsch Stalin and Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej, which were published in the newspaper Neuer Weg (NW) (1953 respectively 1965). The theoretical point of view hold by the author is that of sociolinguistics and pragmalinguistics. At first, the concept wooden language is defined and its most important structural features and means of utterance are identified, the socio-historical background, that encourages the existence of the analysed phenomenon is also explained. The results of the analysis are presented further: the form of expression of the “wooden” statements, their morpho-syntactic, semantic, pragmatic-stylistic structure. The paper contains some final remarks on general characteristics of the written press.
Die Darstellung der Machtverhältnisse im politischen Diskurs – am Beispiel politisierter Gedenkreden
(2015)
The present paper deals with the way in which the relations between different political governments and their representatives are expressed at the linguistic level on the strength of power positions in the official political discourse. The political value system and its justification are expressed in the official political discourse, which lays down rules and indicates attitudes with normative status and at the same time reveals the relations between the supporters of the respective ideology. For this purpose, three commemorative speeches are analysed; these speeches were published in the newspaper Neuer Weg on the 11th September 1960 and they were delivered by the German politicians Otto Grotewohl, the prime minister of GDR and Walter Ulbricht, the deputy prime minister of GDR and the Romanian politician Chivu Stoica, the secretary of the presidium of the General Council of the Party, on the death of the former President of the German Democratic Republic Wilhelm Pieck.
Der Beitrag widmet sich einem ausgewählten Bereich öffentlicher Pressesprache, wobei strukturelle, semantische und pragmatische Besonderheiten der sogenannten hölzernen Sprache in der deutschsprachigen Zeitung Neuer Weg (NW) aus Rumänien exemplarisch am Beispiel von Beileidstelegrammen zum Ableben der kommunistischen Führer Josef Wissarionowitsch Stalin und Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej (1953 bzw.1965) erfasst werden sollen. Mit der Darstellung von Formulierungspräferenzen in einer ausgewählten Textsorte der öffentlichen schriftlichen Kommunikationspraxis und der Analyse dieses soziokulturell geprägten Sprachgebrauchs hinaus sollen auch die sozial-historischen Bedingungen, die für das Auftauchen der Ausdrucksformen der hölzernen Sprache förderlich waren, eruiert werden.
The tendency to apply media in regional studies for students of German as a foreign language (Deutsch als Fremdsprache, DaF) is no longer a novelty. Thus, we see media applied as such in multiple different forms, like videos, press releases, radio segments or online statements. This contribution is focused on the radio interview, as a constitutive part of the regional studies’ courses for DaF students of Germanistik in Romania. As a starting point serves the assumption, that the application of visual media can be enhanced through dialogue sequences, which further highlight the subject of the course. Through chosen interviews, that have been aired by the state channels, students can become familiar with such issues, that affect the German minority in Romania. The authenticity that is being sought for, will result from the primary situation of the interviewer and the interviewee communicating, as well as through the utilization of Rumäniendeutsch as the standard language of the German minority, living in Romania. Thus can cultural, social, historical and linguistic phenomena that are specific for the local German speaking population and that are (re)constructing the cultural inheritance of Germans in Romania, be regarded in greater detail.
