In this article, the author examines the theoretical foundations of the study of the academic discourse ofRussian and foreign authors. The definition of «scientific discourse / text / style» used in Russian linguistic and philologicaldisciplines goes back to the paradigm of functional stylistics. The definition of «academic» in relation to «communication/ discourse / text», emerging from the English-speaking tradition, grows out of the methodological direction of appliedlinguistics «English for Academic Purposes». Having considered these concepts, the author comes to the conclusion thatthe nomination «academic discourse» is used by analogy with Russian «scientific discourse» and English «academicdiscourse» to denote the entire set of communicative phenomena within the framework of the interaction of subjects ofscientific and pedagogical spheres of activity.
