The German Linguistic Studies Series is a comprehensive and outstanding forum in its field. It has borne the name of its subject in its title since the foundation of the series in the eighth decade of the last century.The series is comprehensive in the broad spectrum of topics covered (language levels, varieties, communication forms, epochs) in the range of research perspectives (theoretical and empirical studies, fundamental research and applications, interdisciplinarity with psychology, the social sciences etc.) and methodologies (the sole criterion is quality), in the rhythm of research (trends are perceived and also set, achievements are secured) and in the forms of presentation (monographs, textbooks, collected volumes, dictionaries).Professorial theses, outstanding doctoral theses, pioneering research findings from wider contexts, but also the surprising ‛stroke of genius’ set the standards for inclusion in the series.

Im Fokus dieses Buches stehen neben der Modalverbsemantik, den pragmatischen Funktionen der Modalverben im politischen Diskurskontext und ihren topologischen Positionen über die konstruktionellen Verbindungen von Modalverben auch der Modalverbeinsatz für die persuasive Argumentation in politischen Interaktionen mit Journalistinnen und Journalisten und die kognitionslinguistische Visualisierung der Modalverben. Am Korpus von bislang zum Teil unveröffentlichten Bundespressekonferenzen mit historisch einzigartigen Reden der Kanzler und der Kanzlerin zwischen 1990 bis 2018 werden der Modalverbgebrauch und ihr Beitrag zur persuasiven Argumentation holistisch und deshalb unter Rückgriff auf einen methodologischen Pluralismus bestehend aus Forschungstheorien und Untersuchungsdesigns aus fünf linguistischen Disziplinen semantisch, grammatisch (inklusive Konstruktionsgrammatik), diskursanalytisch, konversationsanalytisch und kognitionslinguistisch untersucht. Diese korpuslinguistische Monographie, die den Modalverbeinsatz sowohl mit qualitativen Forschungsmethoden als auch statistisch gestützt unter Verwendung korpuslinguistischer Tools erforscht, beinhaltet neben Modalverbklassifikationen auch die Vorstellung von Diskussionen zu modernen Theorien und Arbeitsmethoden für korpuslinguistische Forschung auf dem Gebiet der fünf verwendeten linguistischen Disziplinen der Arbeit, der Diskursanalyse, der Grammatik, der Semantik, der Kognitionslinguistik und der Konversationsanalyse.

Mittels inter-, trans- und multidisziplinärer Ansätze behandeln die Autorinnen und Autoren des vorliegenden Bandes Autostereotypien und Heterostereotypien in der politischen Kultur in Europa während des „langen 19.

Though the refugee crisis was discussed in many countries e.g. in Greece, Hungary, Italy and Spain long before 2015, it began to receive cross- European press coverage only after Angela Merkel’s statement ‘Wir schaffen das!’ on the August 30th 2015This data-based study focuses on, how journalists report on and leading politicians make statements about refugees, migrants and asylum seekers in media and frame these humans after Angela Merkels’ sentence in 2015 until the end of 2017. This volume uses mainly Corpus Linguistics but also Communicative Science for the analysis of labelling strategies and the usage of words, collocations and grammar systems used by journalists and politicians in different European countries in comparison. This empirical volume pictures language specific variation and change of labels. To enable a contrastive study between the press discourses of many European countries, every chapter analyses the data consisting of newspaper articles describing the discourse of a particular country, including discourses of some transit countries around the borders of the Schengen Area of the European Union, which barely have been covered in other studies.
