Abstract

This paper proposes to consider media stylistics to be a separate scientific discipline. It proves that media stylistics is not  synonymous to media linguistics. Media linguistics is a broader concept than media stylistics as it includes various types of  research (and stylistic ones as well). Nowadays, media stylistics is an evolving scientific field having facets of media studies  and stylistics, which shapes its’ content. The article explains the shift from functional stylistics to media stylistics and describes new method and new categories of this scientific field. The major term of media stylistics is «media style». It contains  the leading intentions of a discourse: conviction, informing and entertainment, which forms a unique intentional structure  of media style. Apart from intentional aspect of media style, it’s narrative facet is to be highlighted: the composition of different voices, which forms polyphony of media style. The conclusion done is that creation of new subfield of stylistics is highly  perspective and contributive for modern linguistics and mediaology at large.
