The heuristic category of “discursive form” offers a methodological research strategy. In order to observe its utility and viability, as well as its limits and problems, this approach will have to be further put into practice.
Thus, a discursive form would be an artifact assembled by a semantic condensed in a material discourse and by a pre-established materiality. The ensemble of these reveals a regularity that allows a specific distinction to be made in the context of multiple cultural settings.
In other words, every form must fulfill a “selective” function of contents that allow it to guide the reader’s expectations.
Nevertheless, this function is fulfilled in relation to other simultaneous forms from which it will distinguish itself – a network of forms-, that may survive through time adapting to historical transformations, or disappear. It is important to mention that a discursive form must not necessarily be printed; however, in this work we exclusively refer to “printed texts” as the stabilization of discursive forms is achieved to a great extent due to the printing press.
