Linguistic Analysis of Verbal Representation of Self-presentation Strategy Adopted by Participants of Internet Communication
The article focuses on the analysis of tools of verbal representation of self-presentation strategy adopted by participants of Internet communication. It is a clear fact that selfpresentation strategy can be viewed as a system of verbal actions by a communicant aimed at shaping a certain image. Yet self-presentation can be featured through a variety of linguistic tools which makes the analysis rather challenging as there is no single approach adopted in linguistics. One of the research objectives lay in developing the framework to analyze verbal representation of self-presentation strategy adopted by participants of Internet communication. This preliminary work helped to study the specifics of employing the selfpresentation strategy by a number of communicants.
