In contrast to that, the second type is naive, openhearted, primitive, passionate and hedonistic. The first type is represented by the character of Tika Spic, who is the personification of a primitive, uneducated, resourceful and unscrupulous man. According to the analyzed discourse examples we can infer that there are two basic ways of portraying the people from the South of Serbia. The selected examples have been analyzed on three levels: text, discursive practice and social practice.

The underlying problem of this paper is discourse analysis of the language used by the people from the South of Serbia in the TV show „Porodicno blago” which has been conducted in accordance with the principles of the critical discourse analysis. A person can position themselves on the social ladder of power and prestige by using the ‘pure’ language in formal situations.


Respecting the language standards, one shows his or her own social status in a certain way, being able to accommodate to the rules of public discourse regardless of the part of the country he or she comesfrom. Summary/Abstract: When observing the relation between the standard language and language variety, the hegemony of standards which implies the ideological foundation of its prestige cannot be discarded.

Porodicno blago series#
Even the people from the countryside are hilarious, a refreshing change from Serbian movies and series that were at the time this was aired were heavily focused on Belgrade. These are very common problems that are portrayed in a manner where we sympathise with the characters and root for them. We have the Gavrilovic family where the heads are trying make ends meet while the children are faced with issues of their own: one is trying to find a job, the other is a tomboy who finds love and the third child struggles to finish school. It is happening during the difficult times in Serbia (that unfortunately exist to this day) where Serbs face the issues of high unemployment, the rural-urban divide and the young generation dreaming of leaving the country in a delusion that they might find a better life abroad. What is notable about 'Porodicno Blago' is the good dose of realism it possesses without being dark. I personally find 'Porodicno Blago' a better series than 'Srecni Ljudi'. Pavic-written series were not mindless soap-operas that currently plague the US, India and Spain, but series with intelligent dialogues and witty caricatures of common people in Serbia. Please do not listen to the reviewer 'Crveni Krst' - he has given negative reviews even for classics such as 'Bolji Zivot' as he has a preference for foreign films.
