Its original aims lay in uncovering and describing text grammars.

The application of text linguistics has, however, evolved from this approach to a point in which text is viewed in much broader terms that go beyond a mere extension of traditional grammar towards an entire text.

Text linguistics takes into account the form of a text, but also its setting, i. e. the way in which it is situated in an interactional, communicative context.

Both the author of a (written or spoken) text as well as its addressee are taken into consideration in their respective (social and/or institutional) roles in the specific communicative context.

In general it is an application of discourse analysis at the much broader level of text, rather than just a sentence or word.
