Abstract

Uvriježenost, zastupljenost te utjecaj Biblije u hrvatskom društvu nije novost, ali njezina uloga u političkom diskursu predstavlja nov i neistražen koncept. Ovaj diplomski rad analizira biblijske frazeme, odnosno biblizme u političkom diskursu proučavajući 49 članaka 15 hrvatskih portala u periodu od 2009. do 2023. godine. Analiza je podijeljena na tri ključna dijela. Prvi dio analizira biblizme kao stilske figure u političkom jeziku. Figure misli (antiteza, hiperbola, ironija) i figure riječi (metafora) zauzimaju znatan dio biblizama u političkom kontekstu, te služe slikovitom opisu, odnosno kao skup određenih karakteristika u jednome pojmu. Drugi dio analize posvećen je biblizmima u svakodnevnom govoru, te njihovoj ukorijenjenosti u političkom diskursu. Treći dio istražuje biblijske citate u političkim govorima i obraćanjima koji su nerijetko korišteni na pogrešan način, odnosno krivo tumačeni ili nepotpuno citirani i izmijenjeni. Na osnovu značajnog broja tekstova utvrđeno je kako su biblizmi učestalo korišteni, kako od strane autora portala, tako i od strane samih političara za opisivanje određenih političkih pojmova, situacija i ponašanja. Osim toga, može se zaključiti kako se biblijski citati nerijetko krivo tumače i citiraju, ali i da je Biblija u međuovisnosti s političkim jezikom u Hrvatskoj.

Abstract (english)

The prevalence, representation and influence of the Bible in Croatian society is not new, but its role in political discourse represents a new and unexplored concept. This thesis analyzes biblical phrases, i.e. biblisms in political discourse by studying 49 articles of 15 Croatian portals in the period from 2009 to 2023. The analysis is divided into three key parts. The first part analyses biblicism as a stylistic figure in political language. Figures of thought (antithesis, hyperbole, irony) and figures of speech (metaphor) occupy a large part of the biblisms in a political context, serving as a pictorial description, or as a set of certain characteristics in a single concept. The second part of the analysis is devoted to biblisms in everyday speech, and their entrenchment in political discourse. The third part examines Bible quotations in political speeches and addresses that have often been misused, misinterpreted, or in part quoted and altered. A significant number of texts have been identified as frequently used by the authors of the portal and by politicians themselves to describe certain political concepts, situations and behaviours. In addition, it can be concluded that biblical quotations are often misinterpreted and quoted, but also that the Bible is interdependent with the political language in Croatia.
