The paper discusses a segment of modern social and political German communication which can be defined as vaccine discourse. The study considers discourse to be a complex linguistic unit of an overtext level, which includes texts, utterances, and various communication forms that are encompassed by a knowledge system and correspond to a certain social context. In creating the context of a speech act, all its participants are involved. Special role is also devoted not only to the interaction of utterances but also to the social context they are used in. Combined, these factors create a multidimensional discourse space. Discourse, being the result of chains of utterances united by the topic, constitutes the surrounding reality. We studied the formation of the reality with the means of discourse on the materials of the vaccine discourse, with its development being based on different opinions. We analyzed linguistic features of the German vaccine discourse using discussions and debates in the Bundestag, which took place in spring 2022. We detected major features of the vaccine discourse: polarization, diversity, and incompleteness. The examples prove argumentation to be central in forming the discourse, as it is used by the individuals when seeking the truth. We defined the most important argument strategies and characterized linguistic means responsible for the emotionally polarizing part of the discourse. We detected the relationship of different discourse levels having analyzed discourse contextualization. Moreover, we demonstrated how the microlevel of discourse, which is associated with vaccination, creates impulses for its development to the macrolevel reflecting German democratic challenges.

“…Within German political discourse analysis, the DKW concept has triggered not only a number of proposals for more fine-grained typologies of DKWs and descriptions of the kinds of 'semantic conflicts' inhabiting them, but also DKW-based lexicographical projects; in addition, it has informed a number of lexicographical projects on the history of German public discourse (see esp. Strauß et al 1989;Niehr 1993;Stötzel & Wengeler 1995;Felbick 2003;Schmitz-Berning 2000). In the past, moreover, DKWs were mostly analysed qualitatively and on the basis of what would now be considered small corpora of newspaper texts and/or political speeches, without corpus analysis software, mostly taking into account the following:…”

Patterns of discourse semantics

Corpus-assisted analyses of public discourse often focus on the lexical level. This article argues in favour of corpus-assisted analyses of discourse, but also in favour of conceptualising salient lexical items in public discourse in a more determined way. It draws partly on non-Anglophone academic traditions in order to promote a conceptualisation of discourse keywords, thereby highlighting how their meaning is determined by their use in discourse contexts. It also argues in favour of emphasising the cognitive and epistemic dimensions of discourse-determined semantic structures. These points will be exemplified by means of a corpus-assisted, as well as a frame-based analysis of the discourse keyword financial crisis in British newspaper articles from 2009. Collocations of financial crisis are assigned to a generic matrix frame for ‘event’ which contains slots that specify possible statements about events. By looking at which slots are more, respectively less filled with collocates of financial crisis, we will trace semantic presence as well as absence, and thereby highlight the pragmatic dimensions of lexical semantics in public discourse. The article also advocates the suitability of discourse keyword analyses for systematic contrastive analyses of public/political discourse and for lexicographical projects that could serve to extend the insights drawn from corpus-guided approaches to discourse analysis.

Zusammenfassung: Der Beitrag skizziert einen neuen, sprachphilosophisch inspirierten Forschungsansatz ("Vokabularanalyse") und wendet ihn exemplarisch auf die deutsche Außenpolitik an. Ohne die Diskussion darüber fortzusetzen, ob Kontinuität oder Wandel für die deutsche Außenpolitik seit der Vereinigung kennzeichnend ist, rekonstruiert der Beitrag die Entwicklung der deutschen außenpolitischen Praxis zwischen 1986 und 2002 anhand des Sprachgebrauchs der außenpolitischen Elite. Exemplarisch wird der Gebrauch der Schlüsselbegriffe Deutschland, Europa, Macht, Verantwortung, Selbstbewusstsein und Stolz analysiert. Es zeigt sich, dass im semantischen Netz, aus dem der außenpo-litische Diskurs in Deutschland gewoben ist, mittels der Vokabularanalyse erstaunliche Verschiebungen sichtbar gemacht werden können -Verschiebungen, die ihrerseits nicht folgenlos für die außenpolitische Identität Deutschlands bleiben. Abstract:The article sketches a newly developed analytical approach ("vocabulary analysis") inspired by philosophy of language. Without engaging in the debate as to whether Germany's foreign policy is best characterised either in terms of continuity or
