Il l presente lavoro fornisce un'analisi delle funzioni comunicative e delle forme argomentative di un tipo di testo che ha conosciuto una radicale impennata nella comunicazione politica del 2020: i discorsi televisivi e i videodiscorsi. Fin dall'inizio della pandemia, i capi di Stato e di governo europei hanno spesso utilizzato questo mezzo di comunicazione per informare i cittadini sulle misure contro la diffusione del virus e per fare appello al rispetto delle regole. Attraverso l'analisi del videoclip “Corona-Appell”, pubblicato nel podcast ufficiale della cancelliera federale nell'ottobre 2020, questo contributo si concentrerà sulle strategie comunicative e argomentative più evidenti che Angela Merkel utilizza per sollecitare la disciplina dei tedeschi nell'affrontare la pandemia. Particolare attenzione sarà dedicata alla descrizione delle forme argomentative e alla loro codifica verbale e non verbale.

Abstract
This paper provides an analysis of communicative functions und argumentation forms of a text type which has experienced a radical upswing in 2020’s political communication: television addresses or video talks. From the beginning of the pandemic European Heads of State and Government have been frequently employing this means of communication to inform citizens about the measures against the spread of the virus as well as to appeal to abide by the rules. Through the analysis of the video clip “Corona-Appell”, which was published in the official podcast of the Federal Chancellor in October 2020, this contribution will focus on the most striking communicative and argumentative strategies that Angela Merkel makes use of to appeal to Germans’ reason and discipline to face the pandemic. Particular attention will be paid to the description of the argumentation forms and to their verbal as well as non-verbal coding.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
