Abstract

The purpose of this article is to discuss text as the texture of culture, highlighting a necessary relationship between the two. We start from the theoretical assumptions of thinkers who approach language, and consequently text, as inseparable from historical, political, and cultural moments of society, such as Mikhail Bakhtin, Valentin Volóchinov, Yuri Lotman, Émile Benveniste, and Roland Barthes. Methodologically, we conducted bibliographic research through which we raised reflections concerning our objective. By relating them, we sought the theoretical foundation for the research. The considerations point out that both culture and subjects are constituted by language, and texts show themselves as reflections and refractions of ideological perspectives of life.
