Abstract

This paper brings forth the articulatory pattern of discursive hegemony, which signifies the organization of hegemonic discourse or the way of how discursive hegemony is symbolically articulated in discourse, from the perspective of textual function and the intertextual context theory (intertextuality). This article briefly analyzes the text of British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s address at a Labor Party conference mainly from the perspective of regarding discourse as articulation.

Summary

Introduction

Language as a linguistic aspect of social practice can actively reflect social struggle, conditions of social disorder and of social change. Hegemony is at work from the linguistic structures of discourse and deconstructs those forms by which hegemony takes in concrete, for instance, ideological, cultural, political and economic forms. All those kinds of hegemony may be expressed by means of the dissemination of forms of knowledge, which resides in such the discourses of education and the media. We will tackle articulation, which refers to the organization of hegemonic discourse or the way of how discursive hegemony is symbolically articulated in discourse, from the perspective of textual function and the intertextual context theory (intertextuality). For the reason of discourses in contemporary society having interlaced relationship, it is necessary to situate articulation (structural realization of discursive hegemony) in the theory of intertextuality
