Sprachliche Expressivität, Emotionen und verbale Aggression / Expressivity in Language, Emotions and Verbal Aggression

Silvia Bonacchi, Uniwersytet Warszawski, Warszawa (ORCID: 0000-0003-3914-1233)

DOI: 10.23817/lingtreff.17-3 (data publikacji online: 2020-06-20)

Słowa kluczowe: ekspresywność werbalna, sposoby okazywania emocji, agresja werbalna

The study represents a contribution to the current debate on linguistic expressivity and expressive meaning in the light of emotion studies and verbal aggression research. The emotions closely related to verbal aggression (anger, fear, frustration, lust and desire) and their social display rules are discussed on the basis of current emotions theories. The connection between linguistic expressiveness and emotions is shown by means of exemplary positions: Bühler’s and (post)Bühler’s view of the functions of language, speech act theory and new formal semantic approaches.

Tabubewältigung und Emotionen: Emotionsbasierte Implikaturen im Sprechakt der Andeutung / Overcoming Verbal Taboos: E-Implicatures in Speech Act of Hinting

DOI: 10.23817/lingtreff.17-4 (data publikacji online: 2020-06-20)

Słowa kluczowe: implikatura, aluzja, implicytny akt mowy, tabu werbalne

This paper deals with linguistic coping with verbal taboos through hints and focuses on e-implicatures and their triggers. These e-implicatures are based on emotional knowledge and give an affective judgement about the tabooed state-of-affairs. Emotions which evoke e-implicatures include disgust and fear and their tertiary dyad shame. Both verbal (euphemisms and aposiopesis) and non-verbal triggers (prosodic, kinetic and proxemics) ensure felicity of implying.

Haben Gangsta-Rapper positive Gefühle? – Code-Switching als Ausdrucks- und Gefühlsträger in den Songtexten von Haftbefehl / Do Gangsta Rapers Have Positive Feelings? Code-Switching as an Expression and Carrier of Feelings in Haftbefehl’s Lyrics

DOI: 10.23817/lingtreff.17-5 (data publikacji online: 2020-06-20)

Słowa kluczowe: język patchworkowy, multilingualizm, Gangsta rap, emocje

Linguistic heterogeneity in Haftbefehl’s song lyrics is by no means the final language product of just two languages or cultures. Aykut Anhan uses more than two languages in his creative workshop. He plays with forms such as bricolage, linguistic borrowing, hybrids or Code-Switching. The multidimensionality of his work allows him to express such feelings as anger, rage or fury. Jumping from one language to another is surprising and provoking. The research topic of the following work is the search for positive emotions, which are reflected on the lexical level of Haftbefehl’s multilingualism.

„Man muss nicht immer gleich losprusten“ – Die Abwesenheit von Emotion als Kommunikationsstrategie der Marke Merkel / “You don’t always have to burst out” – The Absence of Emotions as a Communication Strategy of the Brand Merkel

DOI: 10.23817/lingtreff.17-6 (data publikacji online: 2020-06-20)

Słowa kluczowe: semantyka ram, obraz siebie, obraz innych, komunkacja, Angela Merkel

Emotions are a central means of generating attention and thus help to generate and extend power of political actors. The example of Angela Merkel shows that the reversal, i.e. the renunciation of emotions, can also be a successful communication strategy. In contrast to the ideal type of the charismatic politician, the core of the ‘brand Merkel’ is the staging of non-staging. With an evaluation of two corpora, journalistic portraits on the one hand and her own statements made in interviews on the other, the ‘brand Merkel’ is illuminated from two perspectives. In particular, her handling of emotions illustrates the interlocking of self-image and external image, which is made possible by taking up and reinterpreting criticism.

Emotionalisierung durch Bilder am Beispiel deutscher und dänischer Grabinschriften / Emotionalisation through Images Based on German and Danish Grave Inscriptions

Józef Jarosz, Uniwersytet Wrocławski (ORCID: 0000-0002-7820-667X)

DOI: 10.23817/lingtreff.17-8 (data publikacji online: 2020-06-20)

Słowa kluczowe: emocje, uczucia, komunikacja wizualna, inskrypcje nagrobne, sztuka funeralna, tekst multimodany, relacje tekst-obraz, semiotyka tekstu, język niemiecki, język duński

The article examines the emotive influence of visual elements on the reception of German and Danish grave inscriptions. The material basis of analysis are photos of tombstones from the 19th and 20th century from cemeteries in Saxony and Copenhagen. The methodological basis is the theory of multimodal text and the starting point of the analysis is the typology of image-text relationships, which is supplemented by further observations. The study analyzes representatives of different semantic classes of visual components from different time periods. Among the most expressive and impressive sculptural representations are those with references to eschatology and the person of the deceased. In their use, two distinct strategies can be noted: the strengthening of mourning mood and the repression of the picture of death.

Słowa kluczowe: przyjaźń, językowy obraz świata

The objective of the present paper is to compare the conceptualization of friendship in Danish and Polish. The results of the comparison indicate that the lexemes przyjaciel and ven differ with regards to the exclusiveness of the relation that they denote. The differences are also reflected in the respective lexico-semantical fields where the Danish lexemes (kammerat, kollega and bekendt) are only partially equivalent to their Polish counterparts (kolega, znajomy). On the other hand, in the light of the gathered material, the traditional ideal of FRIENDSHIP seems to be very similar in both languages.

Słowa kluczowe: emocje, konceptualizacja, sygnały akustyczne

Emotions as abstract phenomena are not easy to verbalize. On the lexical level, they are most frequently thematized or expressed through imagery. The article aims at elucidating a rarely discussed problem of making emotions lingual employing sound phrasemes. Sounds and noises of animate as well as inanimate nature are in the centre of the cognitive explorations. The sounds and noises are metaphorically mapped on the abstract, hard-to-reach target domain of emotions. The analyses will be conducted on German and Polish phrasemes.

Słowa kluczowe: predykaty emotywne, experiencer, bodyiec, implikatura konwencjonalna / konwersacyjna

The paper contains an analysis of the syntactic features of emotive predicates as well as the main properties of the codification of feelings in emotive clauses. The emotive predicates possess two arguments with the thematic roles of experiencer and stimulus underlying syntactic movement, which makes them in principle diathetic-sensitive. The syntactic markers of emotionality are: prosody, word order, discourse particles, autonomous ellipsis etc. The latter ones encode emotive readings qua grammar structure, thus, they are the primary encoding forms of emotions. However, they can be both specified and unspecified emotive signals. In the latter case they encode emotionality as such, but it has to be specified qua conversational implicatures.

Słowa kluczowe: język, emocje, testament, wiek wyznaniowy

The text type testament is not necessarily associated with the factor ‚emotionality‘, even though the subject it is based on is highly emotionally charged for testators and descendants alike. The texts produced for this purpose are primarily legal documents. Their most important issue is the creation of legal validity. The extent to which emotions can be found in the texts is examined on the basis of a corpus of count testaments from the 16th and 17th centuries.

Słowa kluczowe: Wolne Miasto Gdańsk, Volkstag, ulotki, emocje, polityka

Since ancient times, the goal of the language of politics has been to evoke emotions among recipients. It is no different in the forms that were created for the needs of election campaigns for Volkstag during the Free City of Gdańsk period (1920–1939). Leaflets were the most important media at that time; they were distributed on the streets, stuck on the walls. Their analysis reveals the language strategies that the authors used to encourage voting. The parties consistently create a picture of a city detached from the German homeland whose existence is threatened. They are eager to refer to such universal values as: homeland, patriotism, community, unity and Germanness. The texts are characterized by language aggression towards opponents, emotional saturation and the dichotomy of choice, the quintessence of which are the words used in the title from one of the leaflets.

On the basis of the analysis, the question of what image of the Dual Monarchy’s soldiers at that time could be reconstructed, has been answered. On the basis of the conducted analysis, the characteristics, descriptions and values have been determined for which the soldiers were blamed in different articles.

The attitude of speakers to wine is therefore completely different. Depending on the communication situation and the speaker´s intention, emotions play a very important role. This paper aims to show the extent of emotionality with which the text producers express themselves in various communication areas / situations on wine and also which persuasive language means they use to describe wine in accompanying and advertising texts.

For comparison, examples from the press of the 20th century (1995–1996) are cited to show similarities and development of the language of economy during this period. Emotions have always accompanied economic processes, its successes and failures, for over 100 years.

Słowa kluczowe: „Elegia Marienbadzka” J. W. Goethego, „Zakochany mężczyzna” M. Walsera, motyw miłości

19-year-old Ulrike von Levetzow was Goethe’s last love. The 74 year old poet immortalised his feelings in a masterpiece of German love poetry “Marienbad Elegy“. Nearly two hundred years later Martin Walser based his novel “Ein liebender Mann“ on that love story. Not a lot is known about what truly happened between the famous poet and the young lady on that memorable summer of 1823 in Marienbad. Walser used this lack of historical details to let his creativity run free and tell the story in his own way. His version of the story argues with the picture that the lovestruck Goethe painted in his “Elegy“. The poem’s lyrical motifs are analysed and often debunked in the novel, treated as idealised and thus untrue. This article follows Walser’s analysis, in which Goethe’s view as a person was subjected to quite a questionable deconstruction.

DOI: 10.23817/lingtreff.17-29 (data publikacji online: 2020-06-20)

Słowa kluczowe: emocjonlaność, modalność, pole modalne

The analysis of the verbal forms of moods in the folk song „Wenn ich ein Vöglein wär“ makes evident that the German subjunctive II (Konjunktiv II) does not only function as a modus irrealis; it also informs about the emotion(s) of the lyrical I. The coherence between the epistemic modality and emotionality gets more obvious in the parody of the folk song by Heinrich Heine. The semantic function of the diminutive suffix -lein adds informations about emotions. This makes it clear that emotionality is also a subjective statement of the speaker’s views on the verbalized facts. Therefore emotionality can be understood as a kind of modality.
