| 總結: | This study attempts to discover the relationship between power, ideology and
discourse embraced in two speeches delivered by Hillary Clinton in 1995 and
2013, using the CDA framework suggested by Norman Fair
clough (2001). The
analysis is carried out in three separated phases namely Description, Interpretation,
and Explanation. Major aspects selected for analysis include vocabulary, grammar,
and macro
-
structures. Due to the limited time, the study focuses on a
nalysis of
lexical choice, voice, pronouns, and large
-
scale structures. The findings show that
ideology and power are expressed in a number of ways, and there is not much
difference between two speeches. The biggest difference lies on the situational
conte
xt that exerts influences on exhibiting power and ideology. While 1995
speech centers on depicting the reality of harsh treatment on women, 2013 speech
offers a review of achievements and remains in fights for women advancement. In
general, both speeches s
erve as Clinton‘s calls for actions on women rights
violations. |
