Learning outcomes
The Text Theory as broadly conceived is an interdisciplinary field, including work in linguistics, literary theory, communication theory and other fields. Thus the primary goal of the course is to provide graduate students in linguistics, rhetoric and composition, sociology, and other language arts fields with a basic theoretical and methodological foundation for the study and analysis of the text.
Students acquire basic knowledge about fundamental topics of text theory. Students acquire a set of key terms and analytical approaches to text (hermeneutics, discourse analysis, etc.).
Prerequisites
The knowledge of basic terms from linguistics, media and cultural studies.
