Abstract

This article is devoted to the consideration of discourse studies development as well as that of discourse analysis. This method makes it possible to take into account not only the linguistic (verbal)  aspect, but also the supra-linguistic (extra-verbal) one, as it also focuses on the situational peculiarities  of the text or statements, their pragmatic and functional features, the cultural and historical context, and  many  other  factors.  Nowadays  discourse  analysis  is  widely  used  for  interdisciplinary  research,  which determines  the  relevance  of  studying  the  prospects  for  its  further  use.  This  work  provides  a  historical  overview  of  discourse  studies  formation  and  development.  Various  approaches  to  the  key  concept interpretation from this area, which is discourse, are analysed. The process of discourse analysis formation as one of the most important parts of the conceptual and categorical apparatus of discourse studies as well as various approaches to its implementation are considered. Some new ways of using discourse analysis to conduct research on various institutional types of communication are proposed, which is demonstrated  by the example of implementing this method in the study of sports rhetoric.
