| Abstract: | This paper is meant as an attempt to show the way in which by analysing the discourse of a newspaper article, we may uncover a certain culture in a specific period of its historical development. To this aim I have chosen an article from a Romanian satirical newspaper, Academia Catavencu, which I found particularly interesting in that it poses a number of problems for the analysis. In my attempt I shall rely on the analytical framework introduced by Brown and Yule (1989) and I will focus on two key issues, namely staging and coherence. Hopefully, the analysis will bring evidence in favour of the idea that a text can be regarded as an interaction between writer and reader. |
