Talk:Text types

Cleanup[edit]

This text is a mess, it's incomprehensible, at least the beginning is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.161.144.19 (talk • contribs) 07:36, 28 October 2009

I agree, the page is a mess. An older version (207394973) was sensible, though it lacked sufficient sourcing and lead section context. If there are no objections, I will roll back to that April 2008 version and begin re-writing from there. Are there valuable additions that will be lost, or other objections to rolling back?

Done. The page still requires significant re-writing. Cnilep (talk) 17:15, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Two senses of "text types"[edit]

In searching for sources, I have noticed that the phrase "text types" has two different uses. In historical or corpus linguistics, the term is used more or less synonymously with genre. In studies of Bible translations the term appears to refer to the selection among various manuscripts, especially manuscripts of the New Testament. This suggests that the page will require an entire re-write, ideally into two pages - one treating the linguistic/ philological sense of the word, and one treating the translation/ biblical scholarship sense.

By the way, I haven't yet found sources that use the divisions currently mentioned on the page, though of course these are essentially an application of the corpus linguistics sense of "genre". Cnilep (talk) 15:34, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Biblical interpretation[edit]

Does the text have one fixed meaning or several meaning? Scripture. 2409:4066:313:DE1D:0:0:1645:50A1 (talk) 14:48, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
