下面的文章论述了德国新闻界在二十世纪最后十年中对现代生物技术所塑造的不同形象。为了描述这些图像，我们选择了框架的理论概念，它通常表示媒体以不同的方式处理某些问题，因此报道为读者提供了不同的视角。我们将框架理解为由几个不同文本元素组成的文本的特定模式。我们假设这些文本元素中的一些以特定的方式系统地组合在一起，从而形成可以在样本中的多个文本中识别的特定模式。这些模式我们称之为框架。通过聚类分析，我们不仅能够识别预定义的框架，还能够识别新出现的框架，以及问题框架随时间变化的方式。这种方法使我们能够动态地概述德国新闻界在90年代初和后期是如何处理生物技术的。
The following article deals with the different images of modern biotechnology created by the German press in the last decade of the twentieth century. To describe these images we have chosen the theoretical concept of framing, which in general denotes the idea that the media deal with certain issues in different ways and that therefore the coverage offers different perspectives to the reader. We understand a frame as a certain pattern of a text that is composed of several different text elements. We assume that some of these text elements group together systematically in a specific way, thereby forming a certain pattern that can be identified across several texts in a sample. These patterns we call frames. By means of cluster analysis we are able to identify not only predefined but also newly emerging frames and the way framing of an issue changes over time. This methodological approach allows us to give a dynamic overview of how the German press dealt with biotechnology in the early and late nineties.
