Jean Michel Adam Les Textes Types Et Prototypes.pdf __full__ [ Legit • 2025 ]
In Les Textes: Types et Prototypes (1992), Jean-Michel Adam introduced a foundational framework in text linguistics, proposing that texts are constructed from five basic, repeating prototypical sequences: narrative, descriptive, argumentative, explanatory, and dialogic. This approach distinguishes between underlying textual prototypes and social discourse genres, highlighting how texts are often heterogeneous combinations of these sequences.
