Perspective asupra tipologiei textelor [Articol]

Abstract

The multidimensional character of text has generated an increased interest among linguists over the last decades. Text and textology have become important research directions and as a result, today we have text linguistics, another branch of general linguistics. Despite this, the multitude of contradictory opinions on text and textuality gives rise, in its turn, to yet another branch of text linguistics and exactly to text typology (classification). The present study, therefore, aims at investigating and presenting the existing criteria for text classification as well as the varied terminology used by various specialists in the field, such as Adam J. M., Biber D., Trosborg A., Werlich E., Hatim B. and Mason I., de Beaugrande D. and Dressler W., etc.
