“…Agonality is a discourse linguistic term derived from the Greek word agon (an ancient sporting competition, see Gutsfeld and Lehmann 2013). It denotes a competition between different discourse actors, their positions, and the concepts they explicitly or implicitly depict as dominant and crucial for decisions (see Felder 2015;Mattfeldt 2018aMattfeldt , 2018b. This competition may refer to a number of issues, depending on the discourse that is analyzed.…”

“…Two competing concepts, e.g. › fracking poses a risk to drinking water‹ vs. › fracking does not pose a risk to drinking water‹ can be called an agonal center (see Felder 2015). An agonal center describes two positions that are regularly voiced in a discourse (possibly by different discourse actors who may use various ways to phrase them).…”

Hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking", is a highly controversial technology. The horizontal drilling technique can be used to extract shale gas from reservoirs which had been hard to reach before. While the technology is widely used in the USA (e.g. in states like Pennsylvania and Colorado) and has been praised for its potential, other countries such as Germany and the UK have been hesitant to use it. From a scientific perspective, several risks have been discussed, including

“…Work on discourse analysis and argumentation mining has highlighted the important role of discourse connectives for analysing argumentation structure (Felder, 2015;Stab and Gurevych, 2014;Eckle-Kohler et al, 2015). In addition, psycholinguistic studies have shown that explicit coherence marking not only improves sentence comprehension but also results in a more positive evalua-tion of the text by the reader (Kamalski et al, 2006).…”

On the role of discourse relations in persuasive texts

This paper investigates the use of explicitly signalled discourse relations in persuasive texts. We present a corpus study where we control for speaker and topic and show that the distribution of different discourse connectives varies considerably across different discourse settings. While this variation can be explained by genre differences, we also observe variation regarding the distribution of discourse relations across different settings. This variation cannot be explained by genre differences. We argue that the differences regarding the use of discourse relations reflects different strategies of persuasion and that these might be due to audience design.

Europe is a unique framework of communication with similar issues discussed in different linguistic and cultural areas. This paper gives a detailed overview of a discourse linguistic project that analyses this multilingual discourse space. We focus on the issue of vaccination since this is a controversial issue in the media of all countries that are of interest for this study (Germany, Italy, France, UK). Methods from discourse, corpus and computer linguistics are used to identify the most relevant linguistic, argumentative, and emotional patterns in discourse. The paper discusses these methods in detail. We then show how these patterns are annotated in our corpora and how the different kinds of annotations can be analysed in correlation.
