Abstract

The subject of the study is the linguistic resources of introducing a new object into the information (mass media) field. The object of the research is the process of interaction of the (mass media) author and the reader of the text and the linguistic specifics of this process. The author consider in detail such aspects of the topic as the interaction of the implicature and presuppositive information of the text with the political and historical situation. The research material was the discourse of military mass media, especially the use by these mass media of special linguistic means when introducing unprecedented phenomena and newly appeared objects. The main conclusions of the study are the formulation of ways and forms of introducing the new objects through the well-known in the discourse of military journalism. A special contribution of the authors to the study of the topic is the consideration of an object into the information field on the example of two diverse objects, the semiotization of which in both cases involves an appeal to a common apperceptive base, but using different vectors. The novelty of the research lies in the linguistic analysis of the means used in military mass media, the target audience of which are, first of all, military personnel, which affects the compositional and argumentative structure of the text covering a fundamentally new object or phenomenon.
