| description | Based on critical discourse analysis conducted on the media reports which cover the articles from
British and US press, the research gives insights into the common Russian propaganda narratives which have
been spread over the last decade on Ukrainian sovereignty and the war unleashed by Russia on the territory
of Ukraine. The linguistic analysis of the confl ict rhetoric covers pragmatic and semantic elements with
the implied negative assessment of Russian policy. With Critical Discourse Theory and Analysis, Critical
Metaphor Analysis and Positioning Theory applied, the research classifi es the positioning of the main actors
as aggressors or victims and describes the discursive strategies used for countering and dispelling the fake Russian narratives. The study reveals the causes and implications of the analysed practices, identifi es the
linguistic means used for the realisation of the discursive strategies and shows how emotional triggers engage readers through lexical-semantic means and stylistic figures. |
