It gains an increasing interest among scientists due to the increasing number of patients with stroke. Along with medical, psychological and psychiatric research we observe the development of linguistic methodology which begins to describe the pathogenesis disorder with an analysis of the language system — as requested by Roman Jakobson. This paper provides an overview of the most important linguistic thought\: structuralism, generativism and cognitivism and their input in understending the aphasia. Overriding criterion that guided the present analysis is to evaluate their usefulness in understanding the disintegration of the language system."]
