Abstract

Among the characteristics of literary language summarized as multifunctionality, super-dialecticity, normativity, refinement, and differentiation of the functional style, the last is formed in the final stage of literary language development. The functional stylistic system consists of ordinary-colloquial style, academic style, official-business style, artistic-literary style, and journalistic style, and among them, this paper focuses on the journalistic style. First, the first printed newspaper in Russia, Peter's Vedomosti (PV) in the early 18th century and Moscow Vedomosti(MV) in the mid-19th century are compared and analyzed and the differences in newspaper language before and after the formation of a journalistic style, i.e., linguistic distinguishing characteristics between PV and MV, are clearly presented in the aspect of journalistic style. This study on journalistic style as one of the functional styles of literary language will lead to further research on media language beyond the framework of modern Russian literary language and on the correlation between media language, journalism style, and literary language.
