By K Sriramulu Hyderabad: Wow! That sounds like quite a script in the style of journalese. Don’t get panicky. Journalese means not more than “the style of writing supposedly associated with journalists, marked by the use of formulaic expressions.” Shakespeare, in Henry VIII, Act 4, scene 2, said: “Men’s evil manners live in brass, their virtue we write in water.” It means that the evil deeds of persons will be remembered for long but their virtues are forgotten. But the scripts written in the style of journalese, whether they are about evils or virtues, do remain fresh in the mind of readers for long. It is, however, to be noted that such scripts cannot make much impression upon audience, much less on captive audience. It seems that this style of script has failed to make impression on the massive crowds that thronged the venue where film actor-turned politician Chiranjivi unveiled his new party at Tirupati on Tuesday. “If it’s written in the style of journalese that suits the television broadcast, it would probably have made a little stronger impression on the crowd,” a political commentator, who happened to keenly watch N T Rama Rao addressing rallies in the run up to the elections to Assembly in 1982-83. NTR, who knew him at the height of his heydays in filmdom still remembers, always used to speak in pedantic style. His friends were, however, surprised to hear him speak in colloquial Telugu after he entered politics. “Wow! The scripts are written by none other than a poet then working in a newspaper. All his (poet’s) works were in colloquial Telugu.” This was found both by his admirers and critics after he rode power on the crest of a popular wave. NTR, too, by the time he went into electioneering for the second time in 1988, was overwhelmed his pedantic style, though his speeches were still coached in journalese. He had lost to Marri Channa Reddy, who by the skills of his oratory, was able to steer the people towards the Congress. When it comes to Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy, it is his own style of oratory which sways people. His orations during 1980 and early 1990s used to sparkle and captivate audience. His style of oration in pure colloquial Telugu with Rayalaseema accent has really endeared him to youth. He still retains the style but refinement is evident in his speeches now. Clarity in his speeches, however, remains undiminished in the sense that he says whatever he thinks right. Now political analysts are trying to examine the style of political oration by Chiranjivi. His style of oration could not be analysed because it was full of style that smacked of modern journalese. “Whose sweat of labour has produced this script is the question that cannot be answered immediately. “Sentences were stretched too long and some words in the script sounded pedantic,” a commentator said. It led to people losing their trail in the midway. http://www.topandhra.com/ViewEyeCatchingContent1.aspx?cid=30 2&ln=English&subcat=4&catid=2 |
