The paper presents a theory of modeling based on the idea that a text model is a social text structure reflecting generalized features of specific texts. A text model results from the tension between oppositions, including individual – social, concrete – abstract, unique - general, variant – invariant. The text model thus represents an optimal abstraction level and ideally indicates the possible existence of actual texts independent of their individual characteristics. The text model is defined by a set of non-verbal features (properties) and their synchronically stable configuration as well as by a fixed structure of both verbal and non-verbal means of expression (stylemes). The actual (specific) text uniquely synchonizes the social and the individual, the variant and the invariant. Since a text is of a bilateral nature at both system and speech levels the text-formation process is structured within a complex model (the model of models) which encompasses deep text organization models (coherence) and surface text organization models (cohesion). A special position is assumed by genre. As a ‘terminal’ model genre directly conditions the actual text form, the intersection of the invariant and the invariant.
