FORMATION OF GERMAN PUBLICISTIC STYLE IN THE XIX CENTURY (INFORMATIVE FUNCTION)
Abstract
Stylistic norms of the German publicistic style (GPS) in its informative form in the XIX century appear to be a final stage of their formation. On the basis of the structural, meaningful and stylistic criteria the paper distinguishes three variants of the informative texts of the German publicistic style of the XIX century: properly informative, official-informative and informative-expressive. To their basic stylistic features the author refers specialization, topicality and laconism. The special terminological vocabulary of the publicistic style is used in the three forms: 1) scientific and theoretical-professional standardized terms; 2) semi-terms; 3) designation of a practical-professional nature. Stylistic feature “topicality” manifests itself in the presence of a considerable number of neologisms and occasionalisms not always appropriate and suitable from the viewpoint of the modern German stylistics.
