Subjectivity in a corpus of economy radio programs : variations of enunciation markers focusing on the speaker’s status and the program genre

Abstract

How is the range of enunciation markers, which determine how subjectivity is inscribed within objective discursive content, used in economy radio programs? How do these markers vary and according to what variables? Such variations will be explored in a corpus of 35 episodes of various economy radio programs, focusing on program genre (headlines, chronicles, debates, interviews, portraits) and speaker identity — the speaker’s media status (radio hosts, commentators, guests) and social status (journalists, economists, economic actors, European players, artists). Thereby, we seek to identify the enunciation features of the discursive communities represented in the corpus.Analyses fall within two theoretical frameworks: French discourse analyses and enunciation theory. The first framework places discourses in sociological and historical context, in institutional systems, and in discursive communities. The second one illuminates how the enunciation markers under study operate, as well as their semantic value. First-person deictic pronouns explicitly ground the speaker in the discourse. The ‘conditionnel’ tense marks a disjunction between the speaker and the discursive content. From the analyses of how enunciation markers operate on a linguistic level, we will observe their effects on a discursive level, and specifically on the ethos of the speaker. This study will lead us to question, inter alia, the definition of economic discourse, the notions of program genre and ethos, the transition between the enunciation level and the discursive level
