The course also highlights the differences between the text syntax, sentence syntax, ancient text syntax and modern text syntax. In particular, it concentrates on the difference between text and non- text, i.e. it focuses on textual characteristics and the stylistics of texts. Besides, the course examines text-linguistics descriptively and analytically and discourse analysis as a scientific discipline that overlap with many other disciplines but which has a primary concern with discourse, the development of discourse analysis approaches, its relationships with other theories related to critical linguistics, semiotic textual theory, theory of literature and the processing methods in discourse analysis. The course finally looks at theoretical ambiguities relevant to language as power and achievement, including introducing some applied aspects that have to do with analyzing different types of discourse, e.g. political, social, journalistic, and religious, etc.
