The notion of text is perhaps the most used and discussed within
social and human sciences. Nevertheless, it is surprisingly one of
the worst defined. Philology and Linguistics, Literary Criticism
and Aesthetics, Philosophy of Language, Hermeneutics, Ethnology,
Psychoanalysis, Sociology, Semiotics: all these disciplines refer
in various ways to the "text", to make of it the basic object of
their analysis or to measure the distance they keep from it. So
what does "text" mean? What genealogy does this concept have? Why
is there "no salvation outside the text"? This book shows why the
text should be the formal model to explain all human, social,
cultural and historic phenomena and, as a consequence, the product
of a double invention: first as a sociocultural configuration,
secondly as an analytical reconstruction.
