The article presents the analysis of newspaper coverage of EU-related topics (i.e. the European Union, intercultural dialogue and the Slovenian Presidency of the Council of the EU')in two Slovenian dailies (Jan. - June 2008). It focuses on articles which only just mention but do not deal per se with EU issues (categorised as marginal). As such, they function as repositories of meanings, revealing latent conceptions of the common European space. The author demonstrates the effects of the ephemeral by applying critical discourse analysis to the selected examples.
