ABSTRACT

Text, as of the keywords of literary criticism in the 20th century, is a constantly developing and changing concept. The difference between a text and a paragraph lies in the fact that text constitutes a relatively closed and self-contained system. The basic meaning of the concept of “text” of Formalism-Structuralism is that text is an ordered unity of linguistic structure which is most deeply rooted in literature. Structure is another characteristic typical of the text concept of Formalism-Structuralism. From the perspective of Formalism-Structuralism, text is a system composed of language with a certain structure, and structure is the internal stable order of text and the relationship between its various parts and levels. Formal-structuralist literary theory leads people to ponder the structure and meaning of language, while Heidegger inspires people to reflect on text from the perspective of the genetics of language.
