A study of the ideational metafunction in Achebe’s things fall apart: A monogeneric corpus-based analysisKapau, Humphrey M. January 2021 (has links)
Philosophiae Doctor - PhD / This study investigates the ideational metafunction in Achebe’s Things Fall Apart in order to explore the characterisation of Okonkwo, Unoka, Ezinma, Ekwefi and Mr. Brown. The study confines itself to the following objectives, namely, to identify process-types attributed to characters; identify the transitivity patterns embedded in process-types attributed to characters; establish the significance of transitivity patterns attributed in the characterisation; and establish the significance of process-type collocations in projecting the development of characters in the story. The present undertaking is drawn from the theoretical frontiers of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) and the analytical lens of transitivity model, backed by the methodological locale of Corpus Linguistics (CL). The study reveals that although Okonkwo, Unoka, Ezinma, Ekwefi and Mr. Brown are attributed material processes (MaPs); mental processes (MePs); relational processes (RePs); and verbal processes (VePs), significant differences exist not only in how the allotted process-types are mapped per character but also on how they impact on characterisation. / 2023

Previous issue date: 2018-02-26 / Sem bolsa / No ano de 2016 o Brasil vivenciou mais um processo de impeachment em sua recente democracia. A partir de tal acontecimento, foi estabelecido o tema do estudo, qual seja, uma análise linguística dos textos produzidos em mídia digital no período de janeiro a setembro do ano em questão. Assim, este trabalho tem por objetivo geral analisar linguisticamente textos jornalísticos em português brasileiro
que tratam do processo de impeachment da presidente Dilma Rousseff. A Linguística Sistêmico-Funcional (HALLIDAY; MATTHIESSEN, 2014) foi o viés teórico escolhido para analisar esses textos e, devido à extensão do corpus, foi necessária a utilização de métodos extraídos da Linguística de Corpus (BERBER SARDINHA, 2004). A Metafunção Ideacional foi escolhida para ser o escopo de análise do estudo. A motivação da pesquisa surge no instante em que há uma necessidade de
descrição do momento histórico pelo qual a sociedade brasileira está passando e de como este vem sendo construído ideacionalmente nas mídias digitais. Houve a compilação de dois corpora: um corpus de estudo e outro de referência. O corpus de estudo é composto de textos jornalísticos e o corpus de referência é composto por textos acadêmicos. A fim de obter as palavras-chave do corpus de estudo, ambos os corpora foram combinados no programa computacional WordSmith Tools. Após essa
etapa, foram selecionadas as dez palavras-chave mais frequentes no papel de substantivos para que os Participantes com tais palavras-chave fossem anotados, utilizando o CROSF (FEITOSA, 2006). Os resultados mostram que os Participantes com as palavras-chave ocorrem em sua maioria no âmbito dos Processos prototípicos (HALLIDAY; MATTHIESSEN, 2014). Grande parte dos Participantes
com as palavras-chave também realizam o papel de Sujeito Lógico das orações. Por fim, pode-se concluir que majoritariamente os Participantes com as palavras-chave estão vinculados aos Processos Materiais, Relacionais e Verbais. / Brazil went through an impeachment process in 2016. Based on this event, the theme has been established, that is, a linguistic analysis of online texts in the period from January to September of that year. Thus, this thesis aims to analyse linguistically journalistic texts in Brazilian Portuguese that tackle president Dilma Rousseff’s impeachment process. Systemic Functional Linguistics (Halliday &
Matthiessen, 2014) has been the theory chosen for analysing these texts. Due to the corpus size, the use of methods from Corpus Linguistics (Berber Sardinha, 2004) was necessary. Ideational Metafunction has been chosen as scope of analysis. The motivation of the research lies in the fact that the description of the historical moment whereby Brazilian society is going through is necessary as well as of how this moment has been constructed ideationally in digital media. A study corpus and a
reference corpus were compiled. The former consists of journalistic texts, and the latter consists of academic texts. In order to obtain the keywords from the study corpus, both corpora were combined on WordSmith Tools software. After that, the ten most frequent keywords, namely nouns, were selected so that the Participants with these keywords were annotated by using CROSF (Feitosa, 2006). Results show that the Participants with the keywords occur mostly in the realm of prototypical Processes (Halliday & Matthiessen, 2014). Most Participants with the keywords are also Logical Subjects in the clauses. Lastly, it can be concluded that Participants with the keywords are mainly linked to Material, Relational, and Verbal Processes.

Ett dubbelsidigt mynt – IKEA:s identitet internt och externt : en ideationell studie om IKEA:s betydelseskapande / A double-sided coin – IKEA’s identity internally and externally : an ideational study of IKEA’s construction of valueVågerö, Emma January 2019 (has links)
This study aims to examine how meaning and value is created in IKEA’s internal and external means of communication. I want to see if the values expressed in the internal and external communication tangent. I will additionally inspect how IKEA present themselves depending on whether the recipients are internal coworkers or external customers. The last thing to be inspected is the internal and external “ideal reader”, which is translated from the Swedish term “modelläsare” (Björkvall 2003). Furthermore, the objective of the study is to contribute to the field of linguistic research. This is done by exposing how values are used to shape different versions of the identity of organizations internally and externally. The internal documents consist of a vision and a “värdegrund”, in English called “fundamental values”, and the external communication entails three images from the advertising campaign “Where life happens”. I analyzed the material through the ideational metafunction belonging to the theory of systemic functional grammar and through a sociosemiotic multimodal analysis. The result reveals that nearly all of the expressed values occur both internally and externally. An example of prominent values is togetherness, inclusiveness and openness. However, the way in which IKEA present themselves towards internal and external target audiences varies markedly, as does the constructed ideal reader. The internal ideational representation of IKEA marks the coworker as part of the organization. At the same time multiple demands describing how the coworker should act and think greatly constricts and controls the internal audience. The external recipients, however, are free to be of a varying kind. IKEA expresses how the external target audience includes everyone. As a result, there are no expectations of who the external ideal reader should be, with one exception. The internal and external ideal readers are both part of a community, as contrasting to being portrayed as solitary.
