One of the requirements every language has to meet is that of texture.Texture is evident in the relations which exist between functionally-significant text spans,which range in size from the text as a whole down to each individual constituent clause.Rhetorical Structure Theory(RST) proposes a finite set of relations as the basis for forming successively larger spans,thereby creating a coherent text.In this paper,the author illustrates the application of Rhetorical Structure Theory to the analysis of texture beyond the clause.While some relations are signaled lexico-grammatically,other relations have to be inferred by the analyst.The resulting analysis is a theory of the text which takes into account the functional and hierarchical structuring of texts beyond the clause. One of the requirements every language has to meet is that of texture. Text is is evident in the relations which exist between textually a significant down to each individual constituent clause. Rhetorical Structure Theory ( RST) proposes a finite set of relations as the basis for forming connected larger spans, where creating creating a coherent text. In this paper, the author illustrates the application of Rhetorical Structure Theory to the analysis of texture beyond the clause. lexico-grammatically, other relations have to be inferred by the analyst.
