Özet:

In order for successive sentences to form a meaningful whole by combining together, it is necessary to build good coherence and consistency between sentences. Within this context, Onursal (2003) compares text with woven fabric and highlights that text is a structure arising in the process of weaving. Balyemez (2010), on the other hand, describes coherence as ''to constitute relevance between sentences and judgements that forms a text by language items and language rules''. Hengirmen (2009), expresses textual linguistics that analyzes language based on the connection between sentences, regards language usage as text generation and deals text in a body. In this study, a small structure that represents the coherence aspect of the story named ''Mendil Altında'', written by Memduh Şevket Esendal, is aimed to be presented in the light of textual linguistics principles and approaches.
