Summary/Abstract: The subject of this article is the structure of modern scientific knowledge in the field of communicative linguistics, including such fields and disciplines as stylistics, pragmatics (functional pragmatics), text linguistics, (new) rhetoric, discoursology, genology, etc. The author focuses on the problem of delimitation of functional stylistics and the theory of discourse, in the perspective of their subjects and thematic fields. The theoretical problem is that the multiplication of concepts, models, and terminological systems makes it unclear whether we are dealing with different concepts, with different names for the same concepts, with different linguistic objects, or with different phenomena/facts of verbal behaviour. The author offers a unified communicative basis for research in the field of style and discourse, while considering these categories within the stratification model of verbal behaviour.
