How Journalism Uses History examines the various ways in which journalism uses history and historical sources in order to better understand the relationships between journalists, historians and journalism scholars. It highlights the ambiguous overlap between the role of the historian and that of the journalist, and underlines that there no longer seems to be reason to accept that one begins only where the other ends. With Journalism Studies as a developing subject area throughout the world, journalism history is becoming a particularly vivacious field. As such, How Journalism Uses History argu

This book charts the connections between the language of journalism in England and its social impact on audiences and social and political debates from the first emergence of periodical publications in the seventeeth century to the present day. It extends work done on the language of the media to include an historical perspective, adding to wider contemporary debates about the social impact of the media. It draws upon the field of historical pragmatics, while retaining a concentration on the development of a particular form of media language, the newspaper, and its role in refracting and contributing to social developments. Dialogue is created between sociolinguistics and journalism studies. It is ideally suited to advanced students in these areas and in linguistics and media studies in general.

This article examines the recent rise in popularity of German film, in particular comedy, with German cinema audiences. This trend contrasts sharply with negative reviews from cinema critics while being in line with the agenda of popular directors and certain conservative politicians. The article examines what may be deduced about the place of such a cinema in the rearticulation of a specifically German national-popular culture and how this may inform us about the importance of the location of post-unification Germany in the global context in terms of its national identity. By national-popular is meant the ways in which popular entertainment can be used to create a network of identifications within a specific linguistic and cultural grouping such as the nation-state. It also has a resonance of Antonio Gramsci's usage in his Prison Notebooks in that it helps to understand the informal way in which popular culture may actively support the nationalist rhetoric which is necessary to legitimate a nationstate. This is particularly relevant in contemporary Germany, which needs as a political entity to ensure broad support for its reconfigured status.
Der Beitrag befasst sich mit dem Anstieg der Popularität des deutschen Films und insbesondere von Komödien beim deutschen Filmpublikum. Dieser Trend steht in scharfem Kontrast zum Urteil der Filmkritiker, befindet sich aber in Übereinstimmung mit den Anliegen populärer Regisseure und bestimmter konservativer Politiker. Der Beitrag untersucht, welche Rolle ein solches Kino für die Neuformulierung einer spezifisch deutschen nationalpopulären Kultur haben kann und welche Schlüsse man daraus im Hinblick auf die Verortung des wiedervereinigten Deutschlands im globalen Kontext unter dem Gesichtspunkt seiner nationalen Identität ziehen sollte. Unter "national-populär" versteht man die Art und Weise, in der populäre Unterhaltung dazu benutzt werden kann, ein Netzwerk von Identifikationen innerhalb einer bestimmten linguistischen oder kulturellen Gruppierung wie dem Nationalstaat herzustellen. Der Begriff wird auch von Antonio Gramsci in seinem "Gefängnistagebuch" verwendet und macht die informelle Art und Weise verständlich, in der Populärkultur in der Lage ist, aktiv die nationalistische Rhetorik, die notwendig ist, um einen Nationalstaat zu legitimieren, zu unterstützen. Dies ist von besonderer Bedeutung für das gegenwärtige Deutschland, das sich als politisches Wesen einer breiten Unterstützung seines neugewonnen Status versichern muß. (UNübers.)
