The aim of the work is to reflect on the essence of such texts as bus tickets, banknotes, postage stamps, receipts, street signs, and credit cards, which I define as minimum texts. On the one hand, I am interested in the question of what research potential lies in the analysis of minimum texts from a genological perspective and, on the other hand, what analysis criteria and categories from the field of genre studies could be relevant for the analysis of minimal texts. I will try to explain by means of a few examples how I define minimal texts and what I see as the value of this category in answering the questions raised above and outlining the deiderata of integrated multimodal text type linguistics.
