摘要

随着美国社会对性别平等问题的日益关注,带有政治激进主义色彩的歌词越来越受到人们的关注。爱莉安娜·格兰德(Ariana Grande)的第五张专辑《谢谢你,下一张》(thank u, next)的歌词和她动荡的生活事件反映了这一点。《公告牌》(Billboard)等媒体评论称,这张专辑反映了格兰德自强的公众形象。iTunes(2019)将这张专辑描述为格兰德的“复杂、独立、顽强和有缺陷”。本研究采用费尔克劳的批评话语分析的三维框架来调查这些说法是如何产生的。它考察了自我赋权的话语是如何在她的歌词中被描绘出来的,以及使用了什么语言策略来描绘这种话语。本研究希望通过考察年轻女性赋权意识形态的产生,以及新自由主义女权主义与歌词语言使用的关系,为现有文献增添质感。通过对歌曲的文本和社会分析,研究了诸如隐喻、夸张和预设操纵等语言策略,以展示“自我赋权的女性”的意识形态概念。这些概念包括独立、自爱/成长、拥有性以及有需要。这些概念还表明,格兰德的歌词大多支持性别平等和女性赋权的理想。

Discourse of Self-Empowerment in Ariana Grande’s ‘thank u, next’ Album Lyrics: A Critical Discourse Analysis
ABSTRACT Due to the increasing concern about gender equity in the U.S., song lyrics with political activism are receiving more attention. As reflected through lyrics and the artist’s tumultuous life events, ‘thank u, next,’ Ariana Grande’s fifth album, has been reviewed by media outlets, such as Billboard as mirroring Grande’s public persona of self-empowerment. iTunes (2019) describes the album as Grande’s embraced position of – ‘complex, independent, tenacious and flawed.’ This study investigates how these claims came about by adopting Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis three-dimensional framework. It examines how the discourse of self-empowerment is portrayed in her lyrics, and what linguistic strategies are deployed to portray the discourse. This study hopes to add texture to existing literature by examining the production of young women’s empowerment ideology and the meanings of neoliberal feminism in relations to the use of language in song lyrics. Linguistic strategies such as the use of metaphors, overstatements and presupposition manipulation have been investigated through textual, and social analyses of the songs to demonstrate the ideological concepts of a ‘self-empowered woman’. The concepts found include independence, self-love/growth, owning of sexuality, and being needy. The concepts also revealed that Grande’s lyrics mostly support ideals of gender equity and female empowerment.

期刊介绍: JouJournal for Cultural Research is an international journal, based in Lancaster University"s Institute for Cultural Research. It is interested in essays concerned with the conjuncture between culture and the many domains and practices in relation to which it is usually defined, including, for example, media, politics, technology, economics, society, art and the sacred. Culture is no longer, if it ever was, singular. It denotes a shifting multiplicity of signifying practices and value systems that provide a potentially infinite resource of academic critique, investigation and ethnographic or market research into cultural difference, cultural autonomy, cultural emancipation and the cultural aspects of power.
