Abstract
Discourse analysis is one of the most pressing areas of humanities, including linguistics. Crucial issue in discourse analysis is its classification. Various features and parameters that determine the presence of a significant number of its classifications form the basis of discursive taxonomy. Lack of comprehensive analysis of existing typologies in linguistics discourses and need to systematize the classification criteria of discourse determines the relevance of the proposed scientific exploration. The aim of this article is to summarize typology of discourses offered in modern linguistics. This aim implies the following tasks: to analyze the existing classification in linguistics discourse; to codify the principles underlying these classifications. The classification of communicative discourse by G. Pocheptsov is rather common in modern linguistics. Given the extralingual conditions, the purpose of communication and linguistic characteristics of the text linguists A. Kozhin, O. Krylova and V. Odintsov suggest typology of discourse that coincides with the function and style typology. A variety of criteria of discourse taxonomy is offered by I. Shevchenko and O. Morozova. V. Karasyk defines personality-centered and status-oriented discourses as for narratee targeting. Linguistically-pragmatic and communicative aspects of the study of different types of institutional discourse are clearly presented in scientific quests of modern Ukrainian linguistics. A common typology among linguists is the national discourses one (such as Ukrainian, English, German, Spanish, etc.). Thus, a generalized actual interpreting of contemporary discourse involves enriching the text on the discursive level with characteristics which are caused by extralinguistic factors that increase its pragmatic openness.
