Time and space centers in the idea that language is a social capacity and it explores the variety of cultural contexts. By reading a text you can easily deduct and notice the time and space, since they are a very noticible charactersitc in every piece. Texts are produced and read across time and space, this means that every text is situated in a specific context and can represent social, political and cultural concerns.
