Aspetti prosodici del giornalismo narrativo nei podcast sulla sostenibilità in lingua tedesca

In recent years, the topic of sustainability has witnessed a surge in popularity, largely attributable to the enhanced visibility facilitated by digital media. This paradigm shift has led to a novel approach – commonly referred to as narrative journalism – that merges conventional journalism with elements of entertainment and a subjective perspective. The emergence of this approach can be attributed to the limitations of traditional media, which have been observed to emphasise and sensationalise environmental issues, often lacking comprehensive information. Digital media, such as podcasts, have emerged as a means to address these limitations by engaging listeners through appealing and engaging content. While the style and intonation patterns of classic broadcast journalism are well-defined and easily identifiable, narrative journalism remains under-researched in terms of prosody. Initial analyses suggest that there are few recurring prosodic patterns that could contribute to the identification of a unified speaking style in sustainability podcasts.
