dc.description.abstract | The aim of the work is to present the way of conceptualizing the notion
of corpo umano (a human body) and cura del corpo (taking care of the body) in
texts devoted to women’s health and beauty.
The corpus being analysed contains persuasive texts deriving from the Italian
Internet portals such as spaziodonna, donnamoderna, alfemminile, italiadonna,
benesseredonna and Internet websites of the following periodicals: “Il
Corriere della Sera”, “La Repubblica”, “Cosmopolitan”, “Marie Claire”, “Focus”,
and “Panorama”.
Chapter one presents the assumptions of cognitive linguistics, discussing
thoroughly the issue of conceptualization based on a categorial organization of
experience.
Special attention was paid to metonymy (a mechanism creating semantic
extensions within one domain based on adjacence) and metaphor (a process
of copying from the input to the target domain based on similarities) that are
the basis of the conceptualization of the notion of corpo umano in the very
corpus.
The analysis conducted was based on a cognitive conception of Lakoff and
Johnson’s metaphor. The types of metaphors embodying our experience are
reflected in a language use distinguished by the researchers were characterized.
The process of conceptualization was presented in a wide communicative
and genological context. Chapter two gave definitions and determinants of the
text, as well as selected models of communication, taking into consideration
a linguistic communication. In view of the source of the linguistic material, the
work included descriptions of the communications models in the Internet.
A lot of attention was paid to argumentative texts where the author presents
his/her point of view and makes the receiver accept it. In so doing, he/she uses persuasive strategies such as constructing the source of the expression or axiologization.
In this perspective, a discourse is not only a functional product, but is
also treated as a phatic object and carrier of the value system, which proves its
multidimensional nature.
Further on, the work discusses the problem of manipulation, that is, an
implicit persuasive communication being psychological in nature, and an axiological
aspect of persuasive strategies.
In subsequent chapters of the book, definitions and classifications mentioned
in the analysis of the notion of corpo umano in a persuasive discourse
were characterized. The subject of the studies presented in chapter three were
metaphors used in a description of the body and actions taken when taking care
of the body. As a result of the analysis of the linguistic determinants one could
thoroughly analyse the conceptualization of a given notion.
The analyses of metaphorical expressions conducted allowed for showing
a part of the human body and its functions in the categories of a material, plant,
building as well as an object of a religious cult. The measures aiming at obtaining
a perfect look are understood as an armed conflict and a journey.
Chapter four discussed the linguistic mechanisms used by the authors of
persuasive texts in order to influence the receiver (through arousing emotions,
influencing the receiver’s awareness, his/her imagination and reactions).
Also, an attempt was made to characterize the linguistic actions aiming at
influencing the receiver’s decision by means of imposing a particular vision of
reality on him/her. Such actions include, without a doubt, creating the source
of the expression.
The analysis of linguistic expressions, being the trace of the author’s presence
in a given linguistic material allowed for outlining a profile of a text sender.
He/she wants to escape from being responsible for the information read, does
not reveal him/herself at all, sometimes hides in a group or gives the floor to
others, mainly experts.
The sender seems to be a person having a rich experience, high competences
and potential (in comparison to the receiver). Even though he/she tries to
enter into a contact with the addresser, he/she does it in order to impress him/
her much more, and, in consequence, influence more.
Sender’s dominance in a discourse also takes on the form of criticism towards
defects of women’s body. The way the authors of persuasive texts describe
female readers’ bodies creates an image of an imperfect receiver who (perceived
through the prism of his/her physicality) is urged for a constant metamorphosis. | pl_PL |
