This article aims at presenting the main characteristics of Literary Discourse Analysis, which arose in the 1990s in the huge field of discourse analysis. It starts by situating Literary Discourse Analysis in relation to traditional stylistics, in order to emphasize that an approach focused on the notion of discourse challenges the very opposition between text and context, between internal and external approaches to literary texts. Secondly, it demonstrates that the emergence of Literary Discourse Analysis modifies the configuration of literary studies, which by their very nature maintain an ambiguous relationship with Human and Social Sciences. A distinction must therefore be drawn between two paradigms in the study of literature: a hermeneutic paradigm, based on a personal relationship between outstanding works and interpreters, and a discursive paradigm, which tackles literary discourse as a network of historically and socially situated practices.
