Speech disorder in the game of Baldur's Gate series heroes
Journal Title: Prace Językoznawcze - Year 2019, Vol 21, Issue 1
Abstract
Baldur's Gate series games belong to the RPG classics. The world presented is based on AD&D rules of the second edition. In addition, they represent a genre known as high fantasy. It enforces the characters that appear in this world, metamorphosis - ordinary people become heroes. They were not born as heroes. This means that they are not impeccable, without defects or disabilities. They diverge from the classic, epic characters of the hero. Their weaknesses, however, make them more human and thus closer to the real world. Of course, these imperfections concern different spheres. This text focuses on linguistic manifestations of speech disorders of some characters. Problems related to speech do not only concern the language culture, but disorders that are interesting from the point of view of speech therapy (corrective and artistic therapy pathologies, including glottologopedics, balbutologopedics and neurologopedics). The material for analysis was obtained from dialogue entries and audio material from the games: Baldur's Gate (including Baldur's Gate: Tales of the SwordCoast) and Baldur's Gate II (including Baldur's Gate II: Bhaal's Throne), in full Polish language versions (acting dubbing and tensions). The description uses the case study method.
