Tipuri de discurs în textele românești ale Hertei Müller

Abstract

Analysing Herta Müller’s mixture of poems in ,,It is or is it not Ion” I drew the conclusion that irony and sarcasm are the most important tools the author uses to form discourse. The study is meant to describe the means by which irony is produced in the ironic contents and the way this is interpreted by a third person , focusing at the same time on the forms of the media discourse , thus gaining meaning by means of irony through antisentence , fake naivety, underestimation, hyperbolizing, quote and simple meaning irony. Through all the above mentioned, Herta Müller gives her discourse hidden meanings, which her readers attempt to interpret , decode depending on the situation of communication they take part in and the agreement between the reader and the author. Herta Müller’s discourse is sarcastic, as a large number of her poems bring forward situations, facts, actions, circumstances and absurd, untrue, incoherent, illogical events, which all are not the norm for the decent society of good taste. To conclude, the most used means of creating sarcasm is irony through underestimation and hyperbolizing.
