Literary work and ordinary language, two faces of the same currency

Obra literaria y lenguaje ordinario, dos caras de una misma moneda

This article pretends to make a quick review through the principal theories of pragmatics, also to show some of the most relevant points of view in terms of literary criticisim and literary theory; this with the purpose of having tools to show that it is possible to make a pragmatic analysis on the field of literature, so concepts that were already taken as correct on the differences between or- dinary language and literary language are only apparent differences, based on the usage that language receives during specific situations. In this way, various authors will be cited from both fields, pragmatics and literature, to make possi- ble the construction of a way that can help as an illustrative form to show a new perspective that seems now forgotten, pragma literature, it’s relevance and it ́s development will be vital to look for a way of approaching literary analysis from a more communicative point of view.
