Journalistic style (= newspaper-journalistic)

Style is presented in newspapers, in magazines addressed to the mass reader, in speeches by journalists on radio and television, in speeches of public and political figures, rallies, congresses, meetings, etc. Style is realized in oral and written form.

The subject matter of journalistic texts is practically unlimited: political, social, everyday, philosophical, economic, moral and ethical topics, issues of art and culture, issues of education, etc. are covered. Journalism is called the “chronicle of modernity”: it reflects the living history of our society . Feature: in a journalistic style, as a rule, they talk about the most modern, relevant events for society.

Genres of journalism:

Information - provide information. This:

 Information note (chronicle note), or chronicle . This is a selection of news messages: the time, place, event is indicated, described using different forms of the verb (will take place, is open, continues, will gather, etc.) (eg: Yesterday an exhibition opened in the Hermitage. Today in Paris issues related to ... Tomorrow the summit will continue).

 Reportage. This is a genre in which the story of an event is conducted simultaneously with the unfolding of the action. Characteristic: the present tense of the verb, the pronoun “I” or “we” (meaning “me and my companions”), inclusion in the text of a more or less detailed author’s commentary, then the text is an alternation of fragments telling about the event and insertions, reasoning author; sometimes the text is preceded by a comment from the editor (eg: We are in assembly hall. I see that the rescuers have already appeared. The rescuer is now attaching the ladder.)

 Interview (informational). A genre that exists in a dialogical form - oral or written (recorded conversation; in this case, the written text conveys some signs of spontaneous oral speech, as evidenced, in particular, by interjections, colloquial vocabulary, incomplete sentences, picking up remarks, asking again, etc.). The journalist conducts a dialogue with the person answering his questions. The genre allows you to introduce the reader to the life and views of the person he is interested in, and present the material in a lively and interesting way. The dialogical form facilitates the perception of the material. An informational interview provides answers to questions about the details of the event. Interviews in which a person’s characteristics are given in parallel with a discussion of various significant problems are also popular. Often the interview is preceded by an introduction that briefly outlines the situation in which the interview is being conducted; information about the person being interviewed is provided.

 Report.

 Review. A journalist speaks on behalf of a team, organization, party, etc.

Analytical - give analysis. These are the genres:

 Analytical interview. Contains an extensive dialogue about problem: Journalist asks questions about the creature Problems, the interlocutor answers.

 Article. A genre that presents the results of a fairly serious study of an event or problem. The main feature of the genre is the logical presentation of the material, reasoning: from any statement to its justification. Syntactic features: conjunctions and introductory words are used to denote a logical connection. Lexical features: there are terms and words with an abstract meaning. But reasoning can be emotionally colored. This genre is characterized by a combination of bookish and colloquial evaluative vocabulary, the use of short sentences, etc. The article may include various inserts: descriptions of significant events, mini-interviews, etc.

 Review - review of a work of art, film, etc.

 A comment.

 Review.

 Correspondence. A genre that talks not about a single fact, as in a newsreel, but about a number of facts that are analyzed, their reasons are clarified, their assessment is given, and conclusions are drawn. Compared to a chronicle note, in correspondence the volume of reported material expands, the nature of the presentation changes: more diverse language means are used, and an individual style of writing appears.

Artistic and journalistic genres. These are a kind of hybrid genres that combine features of journalistic and literary-artistic styles:

 Feature article. A genre that requires a figurative, concrete presentation of a fact or problem. Essays can be:

- problematic (events are included in the presentation as a reason for reasoning);

- portrait;

- travel (description of the trip);

- event-based (story about the event).

The essay must convincingly combine expressively conveyed events, convincing images of characters, and evidence-based reasoning. People, events and problems are presented in the light of the author's emotional assessment.

 Feuilleton - a newspaper or magazine article on a topical topic, ridiculing or condemning any shortcomings, ugly phenomena (for example: “Letters to Auntie” by M. E. Saltykov-Shchedrin, feuilleton poem by N. A. Nekrasov “Newspaper”, etc. ).

 Pamphlet - a topical journalistic work of a sharply satirical nature, created for the purpose of socio-political denunciation of someone or something (for example: individual chapters of “Travel from St. Petersburg to Moscow” by A. N. Radishchev, “Letter to Gogol” by V. G. Belinsky , “I Can’t Be Silent” by L.N. Tolstoy). Etc.

Substyles of journalistic style:

official analytical;

information and analytical;

reporting;

feuilleton;

rally, etc.

General features of the journalistic style:

The most important feature is a combination of two functions of language: the message function (= information function) and the influence function. The speaker resorts to a journalistic style when he needs not only to convey information, but also to make an impact on the addressee (often mass). The addressee conveys facts and expresses his attitude towards them. The addressee feels that the journalist is not an indifferent recorder of events, but an active participant in them, selflessly defending his beliefs. Journalism is called upon to actively intervene in what is happening, create public opinion, persuade, and agitate.

The most important style-forming features of the journalistic style are evaluativeness and emotionality. Since the issues raised by the journalist (ethical conflicts, human rights, economic policy states, etc.), concern millions of people, it is impossible to write about these issues in dry language. Journalism borrows evaluative means from other styles (mainly colloquial and artistic).

But if for maximum impact on the addressee the journalistic style needs expressiveness, then for the speed and accuracy of transmitting information it needs accuracy, logic, formality, standardization. The standardization of speech in this case is that the journalist uses frequent linguistic means, stable speech patterns (clichés) (eg: warm support, lively response, sharp criticism, pluralism of opinions, active life position, radical changes, on the other side of the barricades).

Speech standardization ensures:

 for the addressee (journalist) - speed in preparing information (the addressee shows particular interest in the latest events, so it is necessary to prepare the material very quickly);

 for the recipient - easier and faster assimilation of information (by skimming through a publication full of very familiar expressions, the reader can grasp the meaning without wasting time and effort).

Thus, the combination of expression and standard is the most important feature of the journalistic style.

Depending on the genre, expression comes to the fore (eg: pamphlet, feuilleton), then the standard (eg: newspaper article, newsreel).

Since works of journalistic style are addressed to a wide range of readers, the main criterion for selecting linguistic means in them is general availability these funds. Publicists should not use highly specialized terms, dialects, slang words, complicated syntactic structures that are incomprehensible to readers, should not resort to too abstract imagery, etc.

Journalistic style is not closed, but open language system , so that journalists can freely refer to elements of other styles: conversational, artistic, scientific. Thus, in the journalistic style the elements interact quite freely different styles.

In journalistic works, it is of great importance author's style - a style of writing characteristic of a particular journalist.

In the newspaper-journalistic style, the narration is always conducted in the first person. It is typical for journalism coincidence of author and narrator , which directly addresses the reader with his thoughts, feelings, and assessments. This is the power of journalism.

At the same time, in each specific text the journalist creates author's image through which he expresses his attitude to reality. The image of the author as a compositional speech category can vary and change its form in relation to the genre, for example:

IN review the journalist speaks on behalf of the team, organization, party, constructing a “collective image” of the narrator;

IN feuilleton, pamphlet This is a conventional image of an ironic, irreconcilable, practically minded narrator.

But, no matter what genre we are talking about, the author’s position, in general, always coincides with the views and assessments of a real journalist presenting the material he has obtained to readers. This, in particular, inspires the reader’s trust in the journalist and his material, respect for the journalist for his personal position, for his sincerity and concern.

The journalistic style uses: monologue speech (mainly in analytical genres), dialogue (for example, in interviews), direct speech.

Journalistic style called the official style of the media mass media), including - , reports, notes, interviews, etc. This style is more often used in writing, less often - in oral forms of the same reports or public speaking political and public figures.

Examples of journalistic style:.

The general features of this style include:

• emotionality and imagery of speech - to create the necessary atmosphere;
• evaluativeness and confidence - for interest;
• logic of presentation based on irrefutable facts– to give speech authenticity and information content;
• call of readers (listeners) to action and public accessibility;
• easy and clear presentation.

Journalistic style is a functional style of speech that is used in genres (article, essay, feuilleton, reportage, interview, oratory) and serves to influence people through the media. It is characterized by the presence of socio-political vocabulary, logic, emotionality and appeal.

Genres of journalistic style: journalistic article, essay, speech, pamphlet, feuilleton, appeal.

Stylistic features: appeal, collectivity and evaluativeness.

The journalistic style combines two functions: the function of reporting, information about certain social phenomena, facts and impact function, i.e. an open assessment of the problems presented in order to influence both the thoughts and feelings of readers (listeners), to attract them to support the position that the author takes and defends. In the journalistic style, there is a preliminary selection of linguistic means. In journalistic style they are widely used, in addition to neutral words, high solemn words and phraseological units (fatherland, march, rise, stand to death, etc.), emotionally charged words, interjections, particles, simple syntactic constructions, exclamation, repetitions, rhetorical questions. In accordance with the main purpose of this style, it uses socio-political, moral and ethical words and phraseological units (parliament, economic growth, politeness, compassion, charity, black gold,)

Art style- functional style of speech, which is used in fiction. A text in this style affects the imagination and feelings of the reader, conveys the thoughts and feelings of the author, uses all the richness of vocabulary, the possibilities of different styles, and is characterized by imagery and emotionality of speech.

The emotionality of the artistic style of the emotionality of colloquial and journalistic styles. Emotionality artistic speech performs an aesthetic function. Artistic style presupposes a preliminary selection of linguistic means; All language means are used to create images.

Art style finds application in fiction, which performs a figurative-cognitive and ideological-aesthetic function.
Typical for an artistic style of speech attention to the particular and random, followed by the typical and general. Remember" Dead Souls"N.V. Gogol, where each of the shown landowners personified certain specific human qualities, expressed a certain type, and all together they were the “face” of the author’s contemporary Russia.
World fiction - this is a “recreated” world, the depicted reality is, to a certain extent, the author’s fiction, and therefore, in artistic style speeches the most important role plays a subjective role. The entire surrounding reality is presented through the author's vision. But in a literary text we see not only the world of the writer, but also the writer in this world: his preferences, condemnations, admiration, rejection, etc. This is associated with emotionality and expressiveness, metaphor, and meaningful diversity of the artistic style of speech.
Let's analyze a short excerpt from N. Tolstoy's story "A Foreigner Without Food": “Lera went to the exhibition only for the sake of her student, out of a sense of duty.” "Alina Kruger. Personal exhibition. Life as loss. Free admission." A bearded man and a lady were wandering in an empty hall. He looked at some of the work through a hole in his fist; he felt like a professional. Lera also looked through her fist, but did not notice the difference: all the same naked men on chicken legs, and in the background there were pagodas on fire. The booklet about Alina said: “The artist projects a parable world onto the space of the infinite.” I wonder where and how they teach how to write art criticism texts? They're probably born with it. When visiting, Lera loved to leaf through art albums and, after looking at a reproduction, read what a specialist wrote about it. You see: the boy covered the insect with a net, on the sides there are angels blowing pioneer horns, and in the sky there is a plane with the signs of the zodiac on board. You read: “The artist views the canvas as a cult of the moment, where the stubbornness of details interacts with an attempt to comprehend everyday life.” You think: the author of the text spends little time outdoors, relies on coffee and cigarettes, intimate life complicated by something"
What we have before us is not an objective presentation of the exhibition, but a subjective description of the heroine of the story, behind whom the author is clearly visible. The text is based on a combination of three artistic plans. The first plan is what Lera sees in the paintings, the second is an art history text interpreting the content of the paintings. These plans are expressed stylistically in different ways; the bookishness and abstruseness of the descriptions are deliberately emphasized. And the third plan is the author's irony, which manifests itself through showing the discrepancy between the content of the paintings and the verbal expression of this content, in the assessment of the bearded man, the author of the book text, and the ability to write such art criticism texts.
The basis of the artistic style of speech is the literary Russian language. The word performs a nominative-figurative function.
Lexical composition The artistic style of speech has its own characteristics. The number of words that form the basis and create the imagery of this style includes figurative means of the Russian literary language, as well as words that realize their meaning in the context. These are words with a wide range of usage. Highly specialized words are used to a small extent, only to create artistic authenticity when describing certain aspects of life.
It is very widely used in the artistic style of speech the speech polysemy of a word, revealing its meanings and shades of meaning, as well as synonymy at all linguistic levels, thanks to which it becomes possible to emphasize the subtlest shades of meaning. This is explained by the fact that the author strives to use all the riches of the language, to create his own unique language and style, to create a bright, expressive, figurative text. The author uses not only the vocabulary of the codified literary language, but also a variety of visual means from colloquial speech and vernacular.
The emotionality and expressiveness of the image come to the fore in a literary text. Many words that are scientific speech act as clearly defined abstract concepts, in newspaper and journalistic speech - as socially generalized concepts, in artistic speech they carry concrete sensory representations. Thus, the styles are complementary to each other. For example, the adjective “lead” in scientific speech realizes its direct meaning- “lead ore”, “lead bullet”, in fiction forms an expressive metaphor - “lead clouds”, “lead night”. Therefore, in artistic speech important role play phrases that create a certain figurative representation.
For artistic speech, especially poetic, it is characterized by inversion, i.e. changing the usual order of words in a sentence in order to enhance the semantic significance of the word or give the entire phrase a special stylistic coloring.
Syntactic structure of literary speech reflects the flow of the author’s figurative and emotional impressions, so here you can find a whole variety of syntactic structures. Each author subordinates linguistic means to the fulfillment of his ideological and aesthetic tasks.
In artistic speech it is possible and deviations from structural norms in order for the author to highlight some thought or feature that is important for the meaning of the work. They can be expressed in violation of phonetic, lexical, morphological and other norms.

Journalistic style - one of functional styles serving a wide area public relations– political, economic, ideological, etc.

PS occupies a leading place in the stylistic structure of the Russian literary language, many means of YHL are tested in PS, but PS can also provide bad influence on the language (penetration of jargon, abuse of borrowings).

In the category of author-journalistic work there are: 2 main features: the author is a social person and the author is a private person. That is, the author expresses both his social position and demonstrates his personal qualities.

Great importance in journalistic works it has the author's style, the manner of writing characteristic of a particular journalist. In the newspaper-journalistic style, the narration is always conducted in the first person; journalism is characterized by the coincidence of the author and the narrator, who directly addresses the reader with his thoughts, feelings, and assessments. This is the power of journalism.

At the same time, in each specific work, the journalist creates an image of the author, through which he expresses his own attitude to reality.

Author's image– ideological and communication center, core work of art, around which all the elements of his poetics and speech means are united and thanks to which they acquire a certain aesthetic purpose and communicative expediency. The image of the author sets the composition of the genre, a certain selection of linguistic means, and expresses the author’s attitude to the work and the facts that it presents.

In accordance with these features and their relationships, certain types of authors: propagandist/agitator, polemicist, reporter, chronicler, artist, analyst, researcher, etc.

Genres of journalistic style: article, essay, feuilleton, pamphlet, essay, open letter, etc.

Journalism is called the “chronicle of modernity”, since it covers the most important issues societies - political, social, everyday, philosophical, economic, moral and ethical, issues of education, culture, art, etc.; its subject matter is unlimited, as is its genre diversity. The living history of our time is reflected in information genres (note, report, report, interview, chronicle, review), analytical (article, correspondence, commentary, review, review) and artistic and journalistic (essay, feuilleton, pamphlet).

In the conditions of rapid preparation of newspaper publications, the interest in which is especially heightened in the wake of events, journalists use well-known journalistic techniques, frequent linguistic means, and stable speech patterns (clichés). This determines the standardization of the newspaper language.

Since works of a journalistic nature are addressed to a wide range of readers, the main criterion for selecting linguistic means in them is their accessibility to the general public. Publicists should not use highly specialized terms, dialectal, slang words, or foreign language vocabulary that are incomprehensible to readers; complicated syntactic structures; abstract imagery.

At the same time, the journalistic style is not closed, but open system linguistic means. This allows journalists to refer to elements of other functional styles and, depending on the content of the publication, to use a variety of vocabulary, including extraliterary words and expressions necessary for a reliable depiction of events and their heroes.

The vocabulary of the journalistic style is distinguished by its thematic diversity and stylistic richness. Common, neutral vocabulary and phraseology, as well as book and colloquial vocabulary, are widely represented here. The choice of verbal material is determined by the topic; when discussing socio-political problems, words such as privatization, cooperator, marketing, management, stock exchange, business, democracy, openness, capitalism, socialism; when resolving issues Everyday life- others: pension, salary, consumer basket, unemployment, standard of living, birth rate, etc.

Against a general neutral background, evaluative lexical and phraseological means attract attention. Among them you can find not only colloquial words and expressions ( privatization, chaos, party, cool), but also book ( power, homeland, agony, triumph, accomplish, bring down, scapegoat of economic reform, shock therapy, Babylonian pandemonium, Solomon's decision, etc.).

Publicists often use terms in a figurative sense (epidemic of chatter, virus of racism, round of negotiations, Shah of government, political farce, parody of democracy, home stretch, line of fire, chromosomes of bureaucracy), which does not, however, exclude their use in exact value in the appropriate context.

The journalistic style is characterized by a combination of words that are contrasting in stylistic coloring: it uses bookish and colloquial vocabulary, high and low. However, the use of diverse vocabulary and phraseology depends on the genre and should be subject to the principle of aesthetic expediency.

The syntax of journalistic works is distinguished by the correctness and clarity of the construction of sentences, their simplicity and clarity. Monologue speech is used

(mainly in analytical genres), dialogue (for example, in interviews), direct speech.
