Contextual analysis

The method of investigating text and its social, cultural, or political context is called contextual analysis. It is often applied in historical, art critical, or sociological studies [HelpfulPapers].
A contextual analysis is an analysis of a text in various mediums (involving multimedia) that helps us to evaluate that text in the context of its historical and cultural background, but also with regard to its textuality. A contextual analysis gets together characteristics of formal analysis with characteristics of the systematic study of social, political, economic, philosophical, religious, and aesthetic conditions that were in place at the time and place when the text was made [English.unl.edu].
Contextual analysis is concerned with finding out the minimal stretch of speech and the conditions required and enough to reveal in which of its individual meanings the word given is used [StudFile].
