Abstract

Cilj ovog rada bio je analizirati pripovijedanje i način na koji su se autorice izražavale u svjedočanstvima o nestalima u Domovinskom ratu. Obitelji još uvijek tragaju za 1902 osobe koje su izgubili za vrijeme Domovinskog rata, odnosno od 1991. do 1995. godine. Njihov nestanak nije samo obiteljska trauma koja se prenosi s generacije na generaciju, odnosno transgeneracijska trauma, već on postaje društveni problem. Upravo zato što to postaje društveni problem, 24sata su od studenog 2016. krenula emitirati serijal Nestali na web platformama i u novinama. Tada je brojka nestalih u Domovinskom ratu bila 1940. Tri godine kasnije, odnosno do zaključenja pisanja ovog diplomskog rada, u lipnju 2019. evidentirane su 1902 osobe. Kontekst Domovinskog rata prožima se kroz sve tekstove. Uz žrtvu, afirmiramo ga kao nešto vrijedno, te se on se uklapa u službenu priču. Službena priča cijele knjige je nestanak i smrt branitelja, dugogodišnja obiteljska agonija te neprestano traženje i traganje za tijelom. Te teme autorice su obradile na način primjeren novinarstvu, odnosno odradile su novinarski posao obavljajući intervjue, ali u njih unijele i književnoumjetnički stil. Uporabom raznih stilskih figura možemo zaključiti kako su doprle do emocija čitatelja jer u svim pričama izjave i izraze pojačavaju sa stilskim sredstvima. Kroz sva svjedočanstva možemo uočiti generalnu antitezu – mi vs. oni. Van Dijk je to nazvao ideološkim kvadratom. Glavna karakteristika svakog političkog (i ideološkog) diskursa jest polarizacija na “nas” i “njih”, tj. pozitivno samovrednovanje i negativna reprezentacija drugih naglasak na pozitivnoj reprezentaciji grupe kojoj se pripada. Tako u radu možemo uočiti neprestano isticanje naše, odnosno hrvatske strane, i njihove, agresorske strane. Narativnom analizom ustvrdili smo da vlastitim stilom autori mogu utjecati na čitateljevo shvaćanje priče i njihove emocije. Autorice odabirom riječi, konstrukcijom rečenica i stilskim figurama “oblikuju” značenje i shvaćanje rečenica i izraza i tako izravno utječu na emocionalno stanje primatelja poruke. Ono je možda i podsvjesno, ali svakako ima učinka.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this paper was to analyse the storytelling and manner in which the authors narrated the witness accounts of the missing persons in the Homeland War. Families are still searching for 1902 persons that went missing during the war, from 1991 to 1995. Their disappearance is not only a family trauma transferred from generation to generation –transgenerational trauma – but it has also become a social issue. For that reason, 24sata launched in November 2016 a campaign called “Gone, but not forgotten” in print and TV. The number of recorded missing persons at that time was 1940, and three years later in June 2019, at the time of writing this paper, the official number dropped to 1902. The context of the Homeland War is integrated into all the witness accounts. Just as victims, the war is affirmed as something valuable that belongs to the official report. The on-the-record story behind the entire book is the disappearance and death of war veterans, long-lasting family agonies, and a never-ending search for the missing bodies. The authors have analysed the topics in a journalistic manner by carrying out interviews, but they have also adopted the literary-artistic style in their writing. By using various literary devices, they managed to penetrate the emotions of readers as all the statements of all the stories have been intensified by means of those devices. All witness accounts contain the main anthesis – us vs. them – which is what Van Dijk refers to as the ideological square. The main feature of every political (and ideological) discourse is the polarisation of “us” and “them” – positive self-presentation and negative other-representation, with the emphasis on the positive representation of the group we belong to. Therefore, the paper constantly points out the “our”, Croatian side, against their, aggressor’s side. The narrative analysis has confirmed that the authors are able to use their own style to affect the reader’s understanding of the story and their emotions. By carefully choosing words, constructing sentences and adopting literary devices, the authors shape the meaning and understanding of the sentences and expressions, thus impacting the emotional state of the reader. Although it may be taking place on a subconscious level, it does have an impact.
