Summary/Abstract: The paper refers to the process of metaphorization in the formulation of the journalistic titlle. Assuming that figurative language is used to point out the emotional aspect of the message, our study focuses mainly on the use of metaphor in the journalistic title. The analysis is based on a corpus consisting of media texts in German and Romanian in the post war period , before and after the romanian Revolution of 1989.
