GENRE CONSTELLATION IN MEDIA DISCOURSE
Abstract
The aim of the research is investigation of a new phenomenon taking place in mass and information discourse called genre constellation. It is a new term for studies of text, genre and discourse. In linguistics it was used first by Danish scientist L. Hjelmslev. He introduced it to describe correlations in language structure, when two elements are compatible but one doesn't suppose presence of the other. In our work we use the term “genre constellation” to denote a special type of interaction between genres when one text combines the features of several genres and it is impossible to refer it to a definite one.
