THE DISCOURSE CONCEPT: AN INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDY
Journal Title: ІНОЗЕМНА ФІЛОЛОГІЯ - Year 2016, Vol 129, Issue
Abstract
The paper covers cognitively oriented studies of the discourse as a concept. It is claimed that the concept in question has gained its place in linguistics and other related fields. The problem is viewed in historical retrospect as well. Both terms viz. discourse and text were originally used indiscriminately, to develop, in the course of time, owing, primarily, to Van Dijk’s works, into heterogeneous, mutually complementary phenomena. Nowadays, these terms are to be differentiated, each one covering a sphere of its own.
