A study of critical discourse in Gujarati (or any other) language does not deal with a pre-defined, stabilized and given object of observation. It deals with dynamic, sometimes unstable, cultural and linguistic situations in and around us. These situations or texts have their own and many ways of generating meaning. These texts interact internally among themselves and with their external contexts. Hence the task of its historiographer is to construct carefully a mobile post of observation, matching the mobility of those situations and historical processes.
