Testo e Senso è una rivista scientifica interdisciplinare nata nel 1998 presso l'Università degli Studi di Roma Tor Vergata. Si occupa di testi, di media vecchi e nuovi e dei sistemi culturali che da essi derivano e assume come tema centrale la riflessione intorno al problema di un nuovo statuto delle discipline legate al testo. Nel farlo, si affida a una pluralità di punti di vista e di interazioni teoriche e metodologiche che vanno dalla teoria e critica letteraria, alla filologia, alla linguistica, agli studi culturali, ai communication studies, alle scienze cognitive, alle neuroscienze, alle digital humanities.
