Abstract

The diversity of approaches to the study of discourse has produced various interpretations of the concept and a wide typology. Discourse is examined within a broad theoretical framework, which has contributed to the development of mul tiple theoretical perspectives on its nature and functions. Discourse analysis, as an active and interdisciplinary research area, can be used to analyze language in a broader social, cultural, and cognitive context, providing a valuable insight into the way people perceive the world and engage with it. The present discursive space is characterized by an expansion of different types of discourses – some are separate and independent, others are complementary and intertwined. Despite this diversification, the classification of discourse types has been explored only to a small extent, with only a limited number of studies thoroughly focusing on the issue. In recent years, the landscape of discourse analysis has been transformed significantly under the influence of new emerging technologies, changing political formations, and new ways of participating in social practices. These transfor mations have altered the ways in which individuals and communities interact, construct meaning, and negotiate identity across different media. The growing diversity of discourse forms reflects the impact of global change and supports its relevance in the analysis of the interplay between language, power, technology, ideology, and identity in the multifaceted and changing world of communication. The author has compiled an extensive list of 300 discourse types, which are presented as a part of a broader classifica tion framework. The study introduces a typology of discourse types based on 17 different criteria.
