textual
The term "textual" refers to anything related to written or printed text. It encompasses the study, analysis, and interpretation of texts, including literature, documents, and other forms of written communication. Textual analysis can reveal deeper meanings, themes, and structures within a piece of writing.
In various fields, such as literary studies, linguistics, and communication, the textual approach helps scholars understand how language and meaning are constructed. This can involve examining the choice of words, sentence structure, and the context in which the text was created, providing insights into the author's intent and the text's impact on readers.
