Download or read book Advertising as Multilingual Communication written by H. Kelly-Holmes and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-11 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advertising has traditionally communicated messages to consumers with strong local and national identities. However, increasingly, products, producers, advertising agencies and media are becoming internationalized. In the development of strategies that appeal to a large multinational consumer base, advertising language takes on new 'multilingual' features. The author explores the role of advertising language in this new globalized environment, from a communicative theory point of view, as well as from a close linguistic analysis of some major advertising campaigns within a multicultural and multilingual marketplace.
Download or read book Advertising and Advertising as a type of discourse written by Angelika Felser and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 1998 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, University of Münster (Englisches Seminar), language: English, abstract: The topic of this essay is "Advertising" and "The Discourse of Advertising". The author of this essay sums up some of the main ideas of Guy Cook, Geoffrey N. Leech, Greg Myers and Prof. Dr. Klaus Ostheeren, E.M. In order to look at an ad as a discourse type, it is necessary to look at Jacques Dubois and the "Groupe μ" who worked on the structure of language, rhetorical operations, "Isotopies" and "Metabolies". The latter can either evoke the "pleasure of recognition" or the "pleasure of surprise". The AIDA-formular, the term "register", the standard components of press advertisements, etc. are also subject of this essay.

Download or read book Television Advertising and Televangelism written by Rosemarie Schmidt and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1986-01-01 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research reported in this volume attempts to refine our understanding of persuasive messages of television advertising by studying the role of language in persuasion in two ways. First, it comprises an attempt to refine our understanding of how language might function in persuasion by examining relevant work from a variety of related disciplines, potentially germane either in terms of their theoretical approaches to the process or in terms of the actual linguistic techniques which they have suggested as enhancing the persuasive impact of a message. Second, a comparative study was undertaken in order to test the generalizability of the linguistic features found to characterize persuasive language in television advertising.

Download or read book The Discourse of Classified Advertising written by Paul Bruthiaux and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1996-07-11 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linguists who have studied simplified varieties of a given language, such as pidgins or the language of care-givers, have tended to explain similarities in their structure by the fact that they use the same mechanisms of simplification. Bruthiaux tests this idea by looking at the structure of classified ads in American English, using a body of 800 ads from four categories: automobile sales, apartments for rent, help wanted, and personal ads. Bruthiaux's thesis is that strict, uniform constraints on space should result in uniformly simple texts, no matter which category they are in, and that any variation would be due to the particular needs of each category. To prove this he describes the linguistic structure of classified ads, and shows that they are characterized by a minimal degree of morphosyntactic elaboration. He then examines aspects of their conventions to highlight the role of pre-patterned and prefabricated segments whose collocational rigidity may force the inclusion of otherwise dispensable items. He finds that there is indeed significant variation across ad categories in terms of morphosyntactic elaboration, and concludes that this is due to a greater or lesser need to be explicit, as well as a greater or lesser anticipation of interaction. Finally, he examines the implications of these findings for the study of linguistic simplification and register variation.
Download or read book The Language of Persuasion in Advertising A Corpus based Critical Discourse Analysis written by Seda Evirgen and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,0, Justus-Liebig-University Giessen, language: English, abstract: The thesis at hand puts a special emphasis on the use of persuasive language in online native advertisements from The New York Times. After careful examination, the corpus will be compiled of three native advertisements from the field of technology, by the sponsors Intel, Dropbox and Slack. The limitation to these native advertisements and persuasive linguistic devices and techniques was necessary with regard to the scope of this thesis. As no linguistic analysis of native advertisements could be found, there also was no reference to follow. Therefore, the thesis at hand lays the foundation for further research in this area. The aim is to conduct a corpus-based Critical Discourse Analysis in order to investigate and answer two main questions: 1. Do online native advertisements make use of the same persuasion methods as previously researched for other advertising types? 2. What are the most prominent persuasive linguistic devices and techniques in the online native advertisements from The New York Times? In addition to the CDA, the corpus-based approach is expected to provide quantitative evidence of the existence of discourse and to identify repetitive linguistic patterns of persuasive language use in native advertising. The thesis will be structured as follows. First, the theoretical framework provides general information about the functions and characteristics of advertising, while further focusing on native advertisement and the language of advertising. It continues with explaining the concept of persuasive language on the basis of ethos, logos and pathos and introduces some powerful persuasive techniques in advertisement. Further, linguistic devices of persuasive language on the phonetic, lexical, morphological and syntactic level will be defined. Additionally, the concept of Critical Discourse Analysis will be explained in detail, as the thesis at hand follows the CDA framework of Fairclough. The data collection method and data analysis procedure will be outlined in Chapter 3. This is followed by an analysis of three online native advertisements from the publisher The New York Times. After the analysis, the results will be presented and evaluated in order to assess the hypothesis. Finally, the conclusion provides a summary of the findings and suggests further research opportunities.
Download or read book Describing Discourse written by Nicola Woods and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For anyone approaching Discourse Analysis for the first time, theory means little when it is not related to actual knowledge and experience of language in use. Describing Discourse takes the unique approach of introducing discourse studies through the hands-on analysis of linguistic data. The book introduces students to specific discourses constructed for particular purposes, for example, from the domains of advertising, law, medicine and education. Each chapter provides examples, exercises and commentary designed to develop the analytical abilities needed in describing the characteristic forms and typical functions of different discourses. Describing Discourse provides the ideal entry into the study of discourse for students new to the subject.

Download or read book The Language of Cosmetics Advertising written by Helen Ringrow and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-28 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a cross-cultural comparison of French and British cosmetics advertisements and explores how the discourse of beauty advertising represents ideas about femininity in French and English language contexts. As the global beauty industry expands and consumers become more critical of the claims made, the topic of cosmetics advertising discourse is examined using Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis. One common theme underlying most cosmetics advertising discourse is that the female body always requires ‘work’ to fix its ‘problems’: flat skin, dry hair, and so on. The author uses themes of language and gender, media and identity, and advertising across cultures to expose exactly what is going on in the language of cosmetics advertising and to offer a first step towards challenging these ideas and thinking about alternatives.
