Internet comments in electronic media. Comprehensive discursive approach

The monograph is dedicated to the analysis of internet comments on articles in electronic media - one of the most dynamically developing genres of digital communication. As a result of analyzing over 2000 internet comments, the term 'discourse of problematization' is introduced, indicating the corresponding differential features (markers of cognitive-emotional reaction to information, markers of spontaneous propositional-modal classification of phenomena, individuals, etc., markers of representation of event development). In accordance with the identified differential features of the discourse of problematization in internet comments, regular communicative-semantic components are revealed: immediate-reactive, interpretative-evaluative, and modal-resolving, characterized by a set of specific linguistic means.
The study is addressed to linguists, as well as to all well-prepared readers interested in the problems of modern internet communication.
