Abstract

Advertizing can be understood as a mirror of social trends, norms, values and conventions, because it reflects the language use at the time. Due to this assumption it is highly interesting to examine the language of advertising diachronically. The article wants to describe whether and to what extent changing social conditions are reflected by the advertising texts. For this purpose it concentrates on analyzing a series of advertisements for dental products that have been published since 1900. So, the analysis focuses on finding out continuities as well as discontinuities in advertising means and their use over a period of more than 110 years. Finally, the article presents the results of an inquiry in order to prove that making use of well-tried advertising strategies might cause a lack of understanding and unacceptability in contemporary advertising.
