discoursing practices

The article studies linguistic features of the political discourse of the immigration on the threshold of the general parliamentary elections in the UK in 2005 from the perspective of critical discourse analysis on the materials of the leading British printed press. The author distinguishes major discursive strategies, forming the discourse of the immigration, and the techniques of their implementation.

The article shows that the literary methods in A. Block’s play «Balaganchik» ( «The Puppet Show») forestall the postmodernist concepts (decentralization of the subject, discoursing consciousness). The analysis of the play «Balaganchik» ( «The Puppet Show») from the chosen point of view allows to get a deeper insight into the sources of the Russian postmodernism and the artistic functions of a poetic word in the literature of the Silver age.
