This work approaches the specificity of a linguist's work in face of the challenge of grasping the complexity of different ways of being, thinking, acting and feeling in the world. Thus this study concentrates on considerations from an enunciative perspective - which claims that language practices constitute a social activity - and focuses on the centrality of the concept of discourse genre (BAKHTIN, 2000). The research carries out a literature review whose theme is the production of meaning when it comes to teaching output. It highlights the reconfigurations suggested by the discursive theory in the disciplinary boundaries of Linguistics, in constant exchange with different fields of the human sciences.
