This book aims to provide you with concepts and analytical tools to explore how meanings are made in the texts that interest you. To understand what a text is we must recognize that a text's texture derives not only from linguistic patterns of cohesion, but also from the text's coherence with its social and cultural context. 'Textness is best regarded as a continuum, with certain pieces of language displaying a high level of texture and others problematizing particular dimensions'
