Starting with an analysis of constitutive and pioneering sessions
in central German parliaments since 1848, the study demonstrates
how plenary debates have become more and more strongly ritualized
and are progressively deteriorating into media events. Major
chapters of the book are devoted to the linguistic description of
political language and communication, the structural changes
undergone by parliamentary publicity, the semiotics of plenary
halls, and specific aspects of parliamentary communication.
Additionally, the Wende debate (1982) serves as a demonstration of
the most important phenomena of parliamentary language: catchwords,
key terms, evaluative expressions, metaphor, allusions, the play on
proper names, rhetorical figures, presuppositions, forms of
address, the 'inclusive we', quotations. Following a comparative
analysis of the 'identity' debate in the Church of St. Paul (1848)
and the 'capital' debate in the German Bundestag, an extensive
final chapter discusses the history, the practicalities, and the
reliability of stenographic reports.
