Abstract

In the presented reception, the authors consider the phenomenon of interdiscursiveness as a fundamental characteristic of the modern communicative space, reflecting the processes of interaction, penetration and transformation of different discourses within the same text. They conclude that it manifests itself both in the lexical-semantic, syntactic and stylistic-compositional planes, forming a new type of text hybridity. The study of interdiscursive processes in media and specialized texts made it possible to determine the patterns of stylistic and compositional shifts that determine the evolution of modern genres and communicative strategies. Interdiscursiveness in specialized texts causes a combination of features of different functional styles (scientific, official-business, journalistic). This is expressed in the mixing of terminological accuracy with elements of emotionality, imagery, and personalization of speech. Such texts become more accessible to non-specialist audiences, but do not lose their scientific credibility. This reveals the communicative adaptability of modern professional discourse, which tends to openness and interdisciplinary. Media texts, in turn, demonstrate an even higher level of discursive hybridity. Their structure combines the analytical nature inherent in scientific genres with the emotional and expressive means of journalism. Stylistic flexibility, the blurring of genre boundaries, the active use of quotes, terms and colloquial elements form a new typology of media discourse, oriented towards a multi-level audience. The compositional organization of such texts is characterized by polystructurality: traditional elements (introduction, argumentation, conclusion) are integrated with narrative, advertising or didactic components. From the standpoint of the socio-cognitive approach, interdiscursiveness not only reflects changes in linguistic practices, but also forms new models of text perception. It activates several discursive schemes in the reader’s mind, due to which the message acquires multifacetedness and increased communicative effectiveness. Thus, interdiscursiveness appears not as a random mixing of styles, but as a conscious mechanism for creating a text that adapts to the conditions of a globalized information reality. The results of the study confirm that interdiscursiveness in modern texts is not a sign of stylistic instability, but a new norm of communication that ensures intergenre interaction, dynamism and openness of language. It changes the role of the author and the addressee: the author acts not only as a carrier of professional knowledge, but also as a communicator who takes into account the diversity of the reader’s experience; the addressee becomes a co-creator of content. A comprehensive linguistic analysis gives grounds to assert that interdiscursiveness is a key factor in the formation of a new text paradigm that combines scientific rationality, journalistic expressiveness and social relevance.
