Žáková, Denisa ; Šebesta, Karel (advisor) ; Mareš, Petr (referee)
The thesis deals with language in the magazine Dirtbiker. It introduces and describes Dirtbiker as a media product and a part ofthe Czech media scene, then it focuses on the content and specific genres ofthe magazine (namely reportage). A special attention is paid to the linguistic analysis and the description of style. The expressivity, enriching the lexicon of the magazine with neologisms, anglicisms and slang are exemplified. The function of profane language is also observed. The thesis follows the way in which men and boys use language and deals with the construction of masculinity in the magazine. The methods of critical discourse analysis are also used. These methods allow us to focus on ideology and the mistakes in argumentation.
