L’intentionnalité dans le discours publicitaire des produits dits écologiques

Abstract

The intention of persuasion in advertising discourse is obvious. This article proposes an analysis of brand names, product names and slogans in a very trendy field – cosmetics and ecological, or so-called ecological products. Persuasive intentions such as positioning, making believe and making do are presented therein and used to provoke a desire and fill a need. The components will be analysed according to the research of linguists such as Charaudeau, Navarro Domínguez, Pachocińska, Prak-Derrington, and Searle. The expected results will prove that intention uses not only psychological but also linguistic manipulations in order to attract consumers.
