Genres and forms in contemporary media 2700-L-DM-Z3GFWM-DFO
The seminar "Genres and formats in modern media" is based on theoretical knowledge acquired during the lecture "Journalism genres". The structure of the classes refers to the classical division of journalistic statements into information and journalism, expanding this dichotomous structure with entertainment. All analyzes carried out relate to the press, radio, television and the Internet. Press photography as a journalistic statement also finds its place during the classes.
Classes have theoretical and practical form. In the first part, reference is made to individual genre assumptions, norms and model, including syncretism as a universal phenomenon. The next step is the analysis of contemporary journalistic materials, and in justified cases, most often in a comparative form, historical accounts. Therefore, the main goal of the seminar is to acquire critical thinking skills in relation to media messages and to assess their structure in relation to the model.
