Практики конструирования уральской идентичности в медиадискурсе Свердловской области

Abstract

Regional identity is considered as a discursive construct, based on spatial and temporal discourse subjects' identification, entering into a complex interaction with a set of heterogeneous thematic identifications. The model of regional identity of the Urals is built on the material of journalistic texts of the "Oblastnaya Gazeta" (Sverdlovsk Region newspaper). The study ana-lyzes the discursive practices of selection, nomination and description of objects and the practices of concept construction. It is shown that the geographical map of the Urals is marked by the local toponyms: Ural (the Urals), Sredniy Ural (the Central Urals) and the names of towns, villages, mountains, rivers and lakes important for Sverdlovsk Region. And the Urals region is constructed as a complex and multidimensional space, the center of which is located in Sverdlovsk Region (the Central Urals), and the capital of which is Ekaterinburg.
