Text and discourse analysis is a field of linguistics and social science that examines how meaning is constructed and communicated through written and spoken language in real contexts. It focuses on both the internal structure of texts (such as cohesion, coherence, and genre) and the broader discursive practices in which these texts are embedded, including power relations, ideology, and social interaction. Methods range from close qualitative reading to systematic, often corpus-based, quantitative analysis. The approach is used across disciplines such as communication studies, sociology, literary studies, translation, and media research to understand how language shapes perception, knowledge, and social reality.
