Cognitive, Social and Communicative Levels of Discourse Analysis: The Case of Critical Discourse Study
Journal Title: Language, Culture, Politics. International Journal - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper presents a methodologically modifed procedure of critical discourse analysis. The present research aims at establishing a conceptual scheme for the discourse analysis combining both cognitive and communicative features of a particular type of discourse, merging them into one sociocognitive structure. Critical discourse analysis is viewed both as a method of investigation, as well as a critical multidisciplinary perspective dealing with various types of knowledge, mental models and types of memory. We treat discourse as a well-designed phenomenon that allows individuals to express themselves socially, culturally, and even spiritually. The article presents the mechanisms of mapping the levels of cognition, communication and society onto macro and micro discourse structures. The suggested scheme of critical discourse analysis has been applied to the analysis of the Inauguration speech presented by a famous British flm maker Tony Palmer at the ofcial ceremony of granting him the title of Honorary Professor of Lesya Ukrainka Eastern European National University.
