| Description | The analysis of the discourse of the four president’s inaugural speaches (B. Pahor, Z. Milanović, A. Vučić, M. Đukanović) deals with common language means and common topics of researched speeches. It is based on the assumption of the linguistic peculiarity of political speeches and on the fact that the speaker and his audience share a common cultural base, so most references are known to the audience. The article examines the use of metaphors, superlatives, repetitions, quotes, but also topics such as peace in the region, education, the future, or the line between past, present and future as a frame that serves the speaker to present his ideas and visions. The text certainly does not list all similarities, but it has served its purpose – to outline a common framework within which inaugural talks operate in the region. |
