Abstract
The Internet, as a new medium, has quickly led to a change in patterns of discourse genres. Contemporary research in this field mainly concerns the description and the assessment of the implementation of linguistic and communication phenomena, with the determination of their aspects. Such a descriptive-prescriptive research method is recommended by media linguistics (cf. 29: 2014a), as it enables to notice the state and degree of transformation of each variety representatives, and in the future it may be used as a comparative material in linguistic and cultural studies. The following article includes an analysis of the media discourse as well as an indication of the direction of research led by the employees of the University of Rzeszów Communication Pragmatics Department in order to popularize research and encourage scientists from around the world to cooperate. The text is divided into two parts. Each of them involves a different type of media discourse, including the review one (Non-genreness as a feature of film review discourse. Journalism of Zygmunt Kałużyński and Tomasz Raczek by Grażyna Filip) and the Internet one (Internet website as a genre in the form of a collection in the Internet discourse by Justyna Majchrowska). Both of the mentioned subdiscourses constitute specific part which can be used as a starting point in further analyses. Specifying each of the discourses – as part of the case of study and the descriptive method – is intended to indicate the possibility of further research in this field. The discussed analyses – a case study and a descriptive one, show the potential of the media discourse which has become a determinant of research conducted at the University of Rzeszow Communication Pragmatics Department. Multi-species closed in sub-discourses shows hybridity, and is also the effect of genological reductionism, which are the implementation of contemporary tendencies.
