The present chapter aims to describe how the body of research on text structure, text comprehension and text production affected text construction and comprehension related research in the field of Translation Studies. Therefore, the chapter begins with a short historical overview of the most influential studies on text processing in the 1970s, discussing research leading up to the construction of Kintsch and van Dijk’s influential Model of Text Comprehension and Production (1978) and van Dijk’s (1980) Macrostructure Model. These two theories are the two most widely used, tested, reliable and accepted theories of text structure, and these are the only approaches that have so far been used and proven applicable in the field of Translation Studies for revealing the process of translational text construction and comprehension (Tirkkonen-Condit 1985).

Having introduced the two theories, the applications of these theories in recent text linguistic research will be outlined. Thereafter, Translation Studies specific implications of the theories will be reviewed, and Tirkkonen-Condit’s (1985) research will be presented, which describes the application of these theories in a study concerning the translation of argumentative texts. More precisely, it will be shown in what ways Tirkkonen-Condit (1985) incorporated the above theories in her comparative analysis of the construction of text structures of source and target texts.
