ABSTRACTThe approach taken to discourse analysis that

classifies text types according to isolated linguistic features iscriticised, and an alternative approach to argumentative texts isproposed. This approach looks at the process of argumentation as aninstance of the problem-solving process. The argumentative text isthen seen as moving from the undesirable, problem state to thedesirable state or solution. Written and spoken argumentation wouldmanifest different strategies and features but would follow the sameproblem-solving process. Argumentative texts would also becharacterised by interaction both between the author and addresseeand between successive speech acts in the texts, and interactiveanalysis could be used for typological diagnosis of whole concretetexts. An advantage seen in interactive description of a text, ascontrasted with typological definition, is that interactivesequencing helps to reveal the text's hierarchical structure and toidentify representative speech acts. The concrete examples used inthis paper are taken from a sample text, a copy of which is appended.(MSE)

mean that the illocutionary quality would be stative. (It can be

mentioned in passing that the situation sections of argsmentative

texts seen to be stative in their illocutionary quality. Since

the sample text has very few and very short situation sections,

it is not worth pursuing this matter here.) In expository texts

directive acts would probably be rare or missing.

Factual prose texts often have summaries at the beginning or

at the end of the text. These summaries can be expected to legi-

timately represent the text as a whole, especially if they are

parts of the text and written by the author himself. An inter-

active and problem-solution analysis of these parts of the text

Should according to my position turn out a diagnosis of the text

type. These summaries can of course also be observed in terms

of what I called isolated typological markera. We can expect to

find also these markers accumulated in the top material.
