Inhalt
Textlinguistics is a branch of linguistics that takes the text as unit of analysis. Commonly viewed as part of the broader domain of discourse analysis, it goes beyond traditional structural levels of analysis as represented by phonology, morphology, syntax, etc. and considers texts as communicative systems.

A list of central issues addressed by textlinguistics may comprise:

  • Definitions: What is a text?
  • Cohesion: How do parts of texts belong together linguistically?
  • Coherence: How do readers make sense of texts?
  • Text typology: How can we classify texts into distinctive categories?
  • Mode: In which respects are texts in different modes (esp. written vs. spoken) linguistically different from each other?
  • Applied textlinguistics and interdisciplinary aspects: How can we use insights from textlinguistics in domains such as literary analysis, translation studies, intercultural communication or language education?

The seminar aims to address these guiding questions both from theoretical and practical perspectives, will problematize the status of hybrid (e.g. digital and written-to-be spoken, written-to-be-sung, etc.) texts and will consider the particular role of contextual factors. To this end, it will further touch upon neighboring areas such as stylistics and register studies and will highlight methods and approaches used in textlinguistic research.
