  • A comparative analysis of transitivity and conjunctions in selected newspaper articles in English : master's thesis = Primerjalna analiza tranzitivnosti in veznikov v izbranih časopisnih člankih v angleščini : magistrsko delo
    Čizmazija, Sara
    The aim of the present master's thesis is to analyse the discourse of selected newspaper articles according to Michael Halliday's theory of systemic functional grammar (1985) and James Martin and ... David Rose's theory of cohesion (2003). The discourse analysis implemented in the thesis has 2 objectives. First, the study focuses on determining the type of processes, participants and circumstantials in every clause in the selected texts according to Halliday's transitivity analysis. Second, the thesis investigates discourse relations in the texts by analysing conjunctions according to Martin and Rose's theory of cohesion. The corpus used in the present master's thesis consists of 4 different articles that were collected from the newspapers' websites; 2 articles were published on the websites of broadsheet newspapers Washington Post and The Guardian and 2 were published in the tabloids Hello and US Weekly. All the articles have one common topic: the First Lady Melania Trump's move to the White House. A comparison of the findings of the discourse analysis provides an insight into the patterns at the micro-linguistic level and into the intersentential connections in relation to the genre of the newspaper article.
