ABSTRACT
This paper presents the results of a double computer-assisted analysis of selected Ansa news agency texts during the domestic quarantine period (lockdown: 10 March 2020 - May 18 2020). More specifically, the research focuses on lexicon, concepts and interpretative sequences in the construction of three media metaphors: 1) "war-like and post-apocalyptic" (CBPA);2) "segregationist and normative" (SN), 3) "reactive and participatory" (RP). Some aspects of the new social and family relations in the Covid Age thus emerge - also on the basis of the concept of 'interactional anomie'. © 2021 Franco Angeli Edizioni. All rights reserved.
