'9/11' has become a termeverybody understands "in its conventional sense, as a realm of creativeexpression" as Daniel J. Sherman and Terry Nardin point out in their book Terror,Culture, Politics: Rethinking 9/11. Also Shana Kushner and Amy Gershkoff say that'9/11' has become an "ideograph in the sense that the historical event represents anattack on the beliefs, values, attitudes and "way of life" within the United States". Notonly in the English language '9/11' has become a "dictum" but in many others, too.In this term paper I want to take a closer look on the speech President Bushdelivered on September 20, 2001 as State of the Union Address to a joint session ofCongress. In my analysis I will go through the speech step by step in order to figureout the main points Bush is making. From there I want to continue with its effects andinfluence on the discourse about 'war on terror'. I am mainly referring to NormanFairclough and his interpretations in Language and Globalization and also to KevinCoe et al. and their study No Shades of Gray. With the help of these publications I want to emphasize the impact and the aftermath of Bush's discourse as well in mediaas in society.
