" Introduction to Text Linguistics "

Below present a book review of Luis Miranda Esquerre: "Introduction to Text Linguistics" ...

This bibliography is based on the lessons or scope given by Eugenio Coseriu on text linguistics taught at the UNSA (1), which were collected by Jörn Albrecht.

Firstly, reference was made to the different nomenclatures used for text linguistics, such as:

- Discourse Analysis

- Grammar Text

- Science

Text - Textlinguistik

also suggests that has not yet reached consensus on the issue even as it is confused with the pragmatics and semiotics (semiology) is often regarded as an interdisciplinary science.

Asimimismo emphasized two definitions about the "text":

1 .- "full linguistic expression"

2 .- "... unit formed according to rules particular language used, where the intention to / from listeners linguistically considered complete. "

As to the first definition, weaknesses identified is that there is talk of a specific language and, therefore, certain rules, raising the possibility multiligüingue consider it as a text.

Text Linguistics is considered, first, as the science of language, on the other, as part of linguistics proper.

To clarify our understanding of this discipline, Coseriu we introduced three levels of language:

a) .- universal level for the speech or speaking in general. "

b) .- Historical level that becomes the language vedría particular historical (German, Russian, English, etc.).

c) Level of texts .- ie speech acts that perform in a given situation, whether oral or written.

In this sense, the grammar of text is located on the third level.
