News blog in the perspective of orality in written text
Abstract
This article is in the scope of studies of orality in written language. Here it is presented an analysis of a news blog aiming at identifying and describing linguistic strategies that produce effects of orality in written texts. It is taken for granted that, in principle, traits of orality appear in written texts when these traits are projected in enunciation marks. It is created, then, by means of these traits, an enunciative scenario configured in the interaction between an “I” and a “you”, in a given time “now”, in a given space “here”. This configuration enables the emergence of meaning effects of proximity and informality produced by different linguistic means, be it of lexical or syntactic nature, be it instantiated by figures of speech or style. Because they provide evidence for these effects of meaning, news blogs have become a privileged corpus to the study of traits of orality in written texts. This is what is proposed here in light of theoretical and methodological tenets of enunciation studies.
Key words: blog, enunciation, interaction, orality, written text.
