    Description: How can we understand the philosophy of linguistics by taking the discipline’s actual theoretical pluralism as our starting point? By what criteria can grammatical research be assessed if we abandon a competitive model of theorising? Through an investigation of different areas of linguistics, this book brings to light certain hermeneutic properties of linguistic theorisation which are currently poorly understood and sometimes not even yet noticed. As a complement to these investigations, the book analyses a number of questions that arise in the “ideological” criticism of contemporary linguistics, examining the discipline’s theoretical activity in light of the socio-ideological realities on which it depends, sometimes unwittingly. Uniting two approaches to linguistics that are rarely brought into dialogue, the book opens up the possibility of an alternative understanding of the complexity of the particular textual objects that are grammatical theories.

    Description: For many years teachers of English felt that linguistics had little to do with their day-to-day classroom activities. More recently, during a period of change which affected the teaching of many subjects, the attitude toward linguistics underwent a sudden and sharp reversal. Linguistic methods of English teaching became a common topic of formal and informal discussion. Today there is a real danger that the profession may be expecting too much from linguistics. In this volume Mr. Marckwardt presents a cool, realistic analysis of the possible applications of linguistics to English teaching at all levels of instruction. He deals first with the direct application of linguistics to the teaching of grammar and to thorny questions of usage. Next, he considers the areas where the use of linguistics is partial or indirect: composition, spelling, reading, and literature. Finally, because he believes that all teaching must be conducted in terms of a broad educational philosophy, the author includes a discussion of the place of language study in the curriculum.

    Description: Phonological Markedness and Distinctive Features establishes a new set of parameters for use in phonological studies of language . Arthur Brakel finds the exciting well-known approaches to phonological description overly elaborate but at the same time inadequate for enumerating and analyzing the many sounds linguists know occur. In their place, he proposes a new set of nineteen articulatory primes based on a priori semiotic principles that establish a distinctive value or markedness of a particular sound quality or articulatory gesture . He bolsters his new theory by testing the primes with examples from the phonemes of twenty-three largely unrelated languages.

    Description: This volume of essays constitutes an up-to-date survey of pidgin and creole linguistics intended for general linguists and readers interested in current theory in such diverse areas as linguistic universals, language acquisition, bilingualism, and language planning. It will acquaint persons relatively unfamiliar with the field with established theories and data, enabling them to follow current debates and to undertake research in the field. Thus it may serve as a basic textbook in courses in sociolinguistics, bilingualism, and language contact, as well as in ethno- or anthropological linguistics, whose focus is language variation and its social and cultural implications. The volume includes a global survey of the distribution of pidgin and creole languages, accompanied by a world distribution map and detailed maps of the Caribbean and other areas. Contributors to this work are Albert Valdman, David DeCamp, Pieter Muysken, Guus Meijer, Derek Bickerton, Elizabeth Closs Traugott, Charles A. Ferguson, Charles E. DeBose, Gabriel Manessy, John R. Rickford, Robert Le Page, Robert Chaudenson, Ian F. Hancock, Keith Whinnom, Dennis R. Craig, and Stephen A. Wurm.

    Description: A state-of-the-art survey of a wide spectrum of sub-disciplines within linguistics by some of the most prominent contributors to linguistic theory of our day. The areas covered include phonology, syntax, semantics, discourse theory, sociolinguistics, and historical linguistics. Taken together, the eight essays in this volume do more than exemplify a number of the most interesting approaches being taken in linguistics today: they point the directions in which the discipline and its most exciting sub-fields are likely to move in the coming decade. The essays and their authors are: "Conditions on Rules of Grammar" by Noam Chomsky; "The Sociology of Language: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow" by Joshua A. Fishman; "Topics in Lexical Semantics" by Charles J. Fillmore; "Semantic Domains and Componential Analysis of Meaning" by Eugene A. Nida, Johannes P. Louw, and Ronda! B. Smith; "Intentions, Assumptions, and Contradictions in Historical Linguistics" by Henry Hoenigswald; "Metonymy and Misunderstanding: An Aspect of Language Change" by Rulon S. Wells; "The Recall and Verbalizatfon of Past Experience" by Wallace L. Chafe; and "New Directions in Phonological Theory: Language Acquisition and Universals Research" by Charles A. Ferguson.

    Description: This pathbreaking work lays a new foundation for linguistics: It focuses on people rather than on language and is governed by science rather than grammar or philosophy. A linguistics built on this foundation avoids many intellectual problems, it can confront the full observational details of how people communicate, and provides greater relevance to studies in psychology, sociology, culture, and literature. The goal is nothing less than to provide the basis for a new scientific linguistics. The thesis that grammar and science are incompatible is developed in a carefully reasoned argument that explores the ancient foundations of grammar and considers the widely accepted goals of modern scientific linguistics. Out of this comes the insight that linguistics must choose between being a discipline of pure grammar that studies language as an abstract relation between sound and meaning and rejects science or a scientific discipline that studies people and how they communicate as part of the physical world. Professor Yngve lays out a new and formal notational apparatus capable of confronting in detail all the evidence of how people communicate . His approach provides formal methods suitable for studying previously difficult pragmatic, contextual, and variational phenomena. And it promises to provide greater relevance to adjacent disciplines, such as physiology, psychology, anthropology, sociology, semiotics, cultural and literary studies.

    Description: “Everything in the feeling of speakers is a real phenomenon,” wrote Saussure in the 1880s for the purpose of a prospective morphology course. But the term feeling is not one of those which, like sign, system, synchrony and diachrony, is associated with the canon of Saussure's concepts. The purpose of this work is to illustrate, on the contrary, that linguistic feeling is essential to the Geneva linguist’s reasoning, and that it is perhaps the central focus which enables him to define what he calls “language”. The contributions in this work investigate what can be called Saussure's linguistic feeling, by exploring the inspirations which Saussure may have picked up from his predecessors, by studying the various inflections which the motif embraces in his texts, particularly from manuscript sources, and by exploring the issues of the notion today. As it is rooted in the sphere of the history of linguistic ideas, it also has the potential to open up new avenues for research on the apprehension of linguistic facts by the speaker.

    Description: By showing the reader the intricacies of face-to-face sociolinguistic interaction, William Beeman provides a key to understanding Iranian social and political life. He recorded and studied mundane conversations; greetings; discussions of crops, marriages, and village happenings; gossip; social talk at weddings, dinners, and religious ceremonies; and talk among people at work. Various patterns of social interaction, such as pronoun usage, significant pauses, and gestures, are analyzed here in terms of their contributions to the overall meaning of the conversation. While focusing on Iran, Beeman's study in cross-cultural linguistics will clearly be a model for the study of different languages and cultures.

    Description: Prenant appui sur l’analyse conversationnelle et l’ethnométhodologie, ce livre se fonde sur l’idée que le fonctionnement et l’organisation du langage sont indissociables de ses conditions d’usage dans l’interaction sociale. L’interaction est organisée grâce à la mobilisation de ressources non seulement linguistiques mais aussi incarnées - comme les gestes, les regards, les postures et les mouvements du corps. Il en résulte une perspective originale sur le langage en contexte et en action, documentée grâce à des enregistrements audio et vidéo d’activités sociales situées. Cette approche rend possible une étude des pratiques interactionnelles qui prend en compte leur organisation détaillée telle quelle émerge au fil du temps, se transforme dans les dynamiques de la participation et s’ajuste aux contingences de la situation. Le livre propose un ensemble d’études basées sur des corpus vidéo qui approfondissent l’organisation séquentielle et multimodale de la parole en interaction à différents niveaux, du formatage des tours de parole à l’organisation de la séquence, de la configuration de l’action aux cadres de participation.

    Description: Au tournant du xxe siècle émerge un nouveau champ scientifique pour l’étude de la parole et du langage. L’abbé Rousselot, avec la phonétique expérimentale, propose d’induire des lois pour les changements phonétiques observés dans les langues. C’est au Collège de France, grâce aux travaux d’Étienne-Jules Marey, que Rousselot va pouvoir rendre lisible et donc analysable ce qui n’était jusqu’alors qu’audible. Cet ouvrage réunit seize contributions relatives à l’émergence de ce champ de recherche. Descriptions, récits et portraits mettent en relief la pluridisciplinarité de la phonétique expérimentale. Au fil de l’ouvrage, sont successivement abordés le contexte scientifique ayant permis le développement de cette discipline ; les premières expérimentations à Paris et à Grenoble ; les développements internationaux en Russie, Italie et Allemagne ; des champs d’étude et d’application de la phonétique expérimentale et enfin une illustration des méthodes et de l’appareillage d’analyse du début du xxe siècle à nos jours. L’ouvrage constitue par ailleurs un hommage à Théodore Rosset, fondateur de l’Institut de phonétique de Grenoble, premier institut universitaire de phonétique de France et à John Ohala (University of California, Berkeley) l’un des grands noms de la phonétique expérimentale contemporaine, très attaché au domaine de l’histoire des sciences phonétiques.

    Description: Stylistics is at a crossroad, according to Timothy Austin. It must find a way of bridging the chasm that separates it from deconstructionism and a means of restoring the faith of disillusioned stylists, like Stanley Fish and his followers, in its precepts. Offering a new, comprehensive, and clearly articulated theory of stylistics, Language Crafted is a first—and giant—step toward the goal of the revitalization of stylistics. Austin sets out the standards that a general theory of stylistics must meet. It must delimit its range of phenomena; it should offer a well-defined theoretical model, complete with theoretical categories and a description of the ways those categories relate to one another; it must evaluate the capacity of the model to analyze data in an approp- riate and elegant way; and it should examine the implications of its conclusions for associated fields. Using these standards, Austin outlines a linguistic theory of poetic syntax, elaborating on its provisions and extending its exemplifications to cover a broad spectrum of authors and texts. Austin's refreshing approach to poetic syntax offers great hope for a positive and productive future for the discipline of stylistics.

    Description: Dillon draws upon recent studies of language processing to ask how linguistic form shapes readers' (or hearers') responses to literary texts. The resulting model of comprehension gives an explicit account of the strategies readers may use in analyzing and comprehending passages from Spenser, Milton, Wordsworth, Henry James, Faulkner, Wallace Stevens, and other notoriously "difficult" writers. Dillon's model bears on many of the major issues in current literary theory, such as whether and how "literary" reading differs from other kinds of reading and what the function and importance of ambiguity is within a literary work. The book's overall aim is to supplant William Empson's Seven Types of Ambiguity as an account of how we do and should read literature.

    Description: With The Sense of Grammar, Peircean studies take a giant step forward, moving from a preoccupation with textual exegesis into the battleground of linguistic analysis. Working along the lines suggested by Peirce's theory of signs, as interpreted within the context of the philosopher's entire oeuvre, Michael Shapiro proposes a major reorientation of linguistic theory and a shift in the ultimate goals of the study of language structure. Part One provides a theoretical dissection of Peirce's semeiotic and evaluates its importance to structural linguistics. In it Shapiro grapples with the main differences between the theory of signs as Peirce held it before and after 1906. He then applies Peirce's semeiotic to the development of a new theory of grammar, which he tests in Part Two. Drawing examples primarily from the Russian language, Shapiro demonstrates how Peircean semeiotics engages the actual problems of linguistic structure subtended by real data and resolves them in the areas of phonology, morphophonemics, and morphology and semantics.

    Description: Objets d’étude passionnants à plus d’un titre, les recherches sur les interactions en site commercial s’attachent, par l’observation des échanges ordinaires, à dégager les « évidences invisibles» sur lesquelles fonctionnent les communications quotidiennes. Ce sont des interactions semi-institutionnalisées, fortement « scriptées », mais dont l’analyse montre qu’elles progressent en fait sur la base d’incessantes petites négociations entre les participants sur les « façons de faire ». Ce sont aussi des « praxéogrammes complexes », imbriquant des activités verbales et non verbales, dont la description vient enrichir la connaissance des modalités multiples de l’action. Elles comportent enfin certains enjeux relationnels qui méritent d’être analysés de près. Pour toutes ces raisons, elles sont également un objet de choix pour l’étude des variations, interculturelles en particulier. Les études réunies dans cet ouvrage abordent ce type d’interactions à partir de l’analyse de données collectées dans des situations naturelles diversifiées (boutiques, centres commerciaux, agences, vente au porte-à-porte, dans différents sites urbains français et étrangers), avec des méthodologies illustrant plusieurs versions de la linguistique interactionnelle. Les ouvrages d’analyse interactionnelle réunissant comme celui-ci des études détaillées de corpus « authentiques », à la fois divers et cohérents, sur un type particulier d’interactions, sont à ce jour très peu nombreux. Ce volume, par son caractère transdisciplinaire, s’adresse aussi bien aux chercheurs en sciences du langage qu’en communication, psychologie sociale ou ethnographie.

    Description: Most twentieth-century attempts to develop a linguistic approach to literature rest on the assumption that litera-ture exists by opposition to all other uses of language—an assumption traditionally expressed as an opposition between "poetic" and "ordinary" language. Departing radically from this view, and drawing upon the findings of both sociolinguists and speech act theoreticians, Pratt argues against the notion that literature is formally and functionally distinct from our other verbal activities and points the way toward a unified theory of discourse. She shows how the poetic language argument, expounded by the Russian Formalists and developed by structuralists, fails, first on its own grounds, and second in the face of data from non-literary discourse, especially that presented by Labov in his studies of non-literary narrative; and suggests how recent developments in speech act theory and sociolinguistics correct previous theoretical deficiencies. The hypothesis emerges that a descriptive apparatus which can adequately account for non-literary uses of language will give a satisfactory account of literary discourse as well. An immensely important contribution to literary theory and linguistics.

    Description: Approaching linguistic science from the combined viewpoint of the philosophy of science and the theory of graphic design, this book offers a radically new treatment of linguistic theory and the history of linguistics. The author analyzes graphic representation, or diagramming, in terms of form and meaning, proposes a taxonomy of linguistic models that cuts across other classifications of linguistic theory, and shows that, like models in the biological and physical sciences, graphic representation has performed and continues to perform a heuristic function for the development of theory in linguistics. This view leads to a reinterpretation not only of the place and function of graphic representation in theoretical linguistics today but also of the history of linguistics. The book suggests new directions for models in linguistics: by making use of the tools furnished by the principles of graphic design, within the context of the principles of the philosophy of science, linguistics can exploit the influence of graphic representation on theory. This is illustrated by two new three-dimensional models for linguistics designed to replace the two principal models now current—the matrix and the tree—both two-dimensional. An analysis of the ways in which new models grow out of old ones and improve upon them demonstrates how graphic representation can furnish linguistics with models and how the design of such models can be improved by applying the principles of graphic design. The view presented here has particular significance for the development of transformational-generative theory.

    Description: Leopold's original bibliography of 1952 was considered to deal with a rather esoteric branch of psycholinguistics. Since then, however, an explosion of research in the field has occurred, which this new revision accurately reflects. To a judicious selection from the old work Mr. Slobin has added 763 new items, standardizing the reference format and adding a unique computerized concordance. Leopold's Bibliography of Child Language is an invaluable reference work in child language study.

    Description: Les travaux de Françoise Desbordes, disparue prématurément à l’âge de 54 ans, font autorité auprès de la communauté des chercheurs en sciences humaines. Leur nombre et leur dispersion les rendent aujourd’hui difficilement accessibles. Leur republication s’imposait. Ce volume est centré sur l’histoire des disciplines qui traitent du langage. Le domaine gréco-latin y est exploré avec une ampleur et une richesse de documentation qui ont renouvelé ce champ du savoir. Les réflexions sur les philosophies du langage (Aristote, Platon, Sextus Empiricus et d’autres), l’histoire de la linguistique (écrit/oral, sens/référence/signification, étymologie, grammaire), l’étude attentive de corpus anciens qui ont servi de base à la tradition occidentale, intéresseront un large public d’historiens et d’épistémologues.

    Description: Les douze textes qui composent ce volume sont issus du colloque international La Locution organisé par l’École Normale Supérieure de Fontenay/Saint-Cloud en novembre 1994. On assiste aujourd’hui à une extension de la notion de locution, qui, traditionnellement limitée aux lexies complexes et aux proverbes, tend à intégrer aussi bien les structures textuelles que la détermination de certaines expressions par des conditions d’énonciation. Le foisonnement terminologique reflète la multiplicité des types d’objets concernés. Face à l’insuffisance de certaines théories linguistiques dans ce domaine, ce sont la dimension pragmatique des usages et leur inscription mémorielle qui sont mises en avant. Tandis que l’étude des locutions en langue se poursuit sur des bases critiques, les différents modes sous lesquels le locutionnel a affaire avec le discours sont de nouveaux champs d’investigation. Le défigement est un terrain d’études privilégié pour les conditions de l’interprétation sémantique des discours. Ces renouvellements permettent de concevoir de nouveaux dictionnaires donnant une image plus complète de tout ce qui, dans les usages, tend à figer le discours.

    Description: This collective work is a tribute to Franck Neveu, a leading expert and professor of language sciences, whose original thinking and extensive academic contribution will have a lasting impact on research in linguistics. In linguistics and/or in language sciences, because this is an old and constantly recurring debate. Franck Neveu resolutely pronounced himself in favour of the latter, although he positioned himself, equally resolutely, as a linguist. This collective volume pays tribute to this open-mindedness by bringing together contributions from renowned authors close to the dedicatee, who explore not only his areas of specialisation such as syntax, semantics and the epistemology of language sciences, but also neighbouring disciplines such as dialectology or text genetics. It has the work of Franck Neveu as its unifying theme and is intended to promote French linguistics, which he champions and illustrates. Thanks to its contributions which represent current research, this book will be of interest to both a specialist audience and one that is keen to learn about language sciences.

    Description: The Structure of Intonational Meaning presents a linguistic study of English intonation, described in the original 1980 front flap as follows: "Using the data of English intonation, D. Robert Ladd, Jr., investigates the theoretical and methodological assumptions of past studies in the field. His impressive synthesis develops a new, comprehensive foundation for the study of English intonation in general. Ladd discusses a number of long-standing issues, including the relation of stress to intonation (and the associated questions of the phonological nature of sentence accent and the phonetic nature of stress), the various approaches to the placement of sentence accent, the phonological analysis of intonation contours into 'levels' or 'configurations', and the 'lexical' and 'syntactic' approaches to the meaning of intonation."

    Description: Les linguistes spécialistes de l’espace francophone usent depuis plus d’une vingtaine d’années du concept de norme(s) endogène(s) élaboré initialement à partir de situations africaines. La question est de savoir si ce concept peut être étendu à d’autres situations de plurilinguisme, et à quelles conditions. Elle est posée depuis les aires franco-créolophones que sont les DOM, dans une démarche de confrontation avec d’autres situations de francophonie (Wallonie romane, Côte d’Ivoire, Louisiane, Maghreb). L’observation attentive de ces situations de contact révèle une permanente activité de brouillage et de négociation des lignes frontières antérieurement posées. Partant, les auteurs de cet ouvrage avancent que l’heure est davantage aux appartenances multiples qu’à une allégeance à une norme unique ; mais aussi, que la langue doit s’appréhender en termes de projet négociable, et non plus d’objet préconstruit, c’est-à-dire d’essence. La question des normes endogènes ou plus exactement du processus de leur production s’actualise alors non pas à partir d’une langue artificiellement coupée de son milieu écologique, mais à partir de ce qui se parle, un vernaculaire marqué par le plurilinguisme, même si les valeurs assignées aux différentes formes linguistiques demeurent, quant à elles, inscrites dans une sémiotique résolument discrète et socio-historiquement marquée.

    Description: Cet ouvrage consacré à l’histoire conceptuelle de la linguistique s’intéresse plus particulièrement à une période émergente de la discipline : entre 1864, lorsque la grammaire comparée arrive en France, et 1916, date à laquelle paraît le Cours de linguistique générale de Ferdinand de Saussure. L’introduction de la grammaire comparée constitue en effet un tournant dans la pensée linguistique d’expression française dans la mesure où l’on commence à s’interroger aussi bien sur la nature de l’objet de la linguistique que sur la nature de la science linguistique. S’agit-il d’une science naturelle, ou d’une science historique ? S’il s’agit d’une science historique, peut-on lui appliquer les méthodes des sciences naturelles ? En mal d’objet précis, la linguistique s’appuie sur des disciplines contiguës qui l’alimentent non seulement en idées et en méthodes, mais aussi en problèmes. Les éléments de réponse, trouvés dans les ouvrages linguistiques de l’époque, convergent autour d’une métaphore récurrente, celle de « la vie du langage », qui s’origine dans l’idée naturaliste selon laquelle la langue, soumise aux lois naturelles, naît, croît et meurt. Cette métaphore mène l’interrogation des linguistes et aboutit à la construction et à l’autonomisation de la linguistique dite générale. Même si la postérité, en quête d’un fondateur mythique, a voulu désigner Saussure comme le père de cette discipline, l’ouvrage montre que cet objet glissant de la langue ne cessa pas de tourmenter les esprits de ses prédécesseurs et contemporains qui ainsi contribuèrent à la naissance de la linguistique moderne.

    Description: L’ouvrage dresse l’état des lieux d’un domaine de recherches, celui de l’histoire et de l’épistémologie de la linguistique, qui s’est fortement développé depuis ces trente dernières années. Une cinquantaine d’articles, dédiés à des langues comme à des périodes diverses, sont ici réunis dans un hommage à Sylvain Auroux, philosophe et historien des sciences du langage, qui a construit l’armature tout à la fois intellectuelle, méthodologique et institutionnelle de ce champ. Au-delà des informations précises ici rassemblées, le lecteur trouvera également l’occasion de réfléchir à la place de la linguistique dans les sciences humaines, et dans les sciences en général.

    Description: La notion de « bon usage » évoque immédiatement dans le contexte de la France les noms de Claude Favre de Vaugelas (1585-1650) et de Maurice Grevisse (1895-1980), deux colosses de la codification du français moderne qui date du xviie siècle. Ce concept, aujourd’hui chargé de connotations archaïques et élitistes, est souvent perçu comme un ensemble de prescriptions normatives correspondant à un certain modèle socioculturel. Le passage de I’« usage » au « bon usage » semble impliquer une transition d’un modèle descriptif à un modèle prescriptif, de la norme objective fondée sur l’usage statistiquement dominant à la norme prescriptive. Le but de ce volume est d’examiner, par différentes études de cas, si l’établissement d’un bon usage aboutit forcément à une réduction des variantes. Le volume constitue un premier essai pour déterminer dans quelle mesure le « bon usage » est un concept typiquement français et à quel point les mêmes idées, termes et modèles se retrouvent dans d’autres traditions nationales.

    Description: A broad survey of the techniques and results of research in linguistic geography, Studies in Area Linguistics presents in condensed form the major aspects of linguistic area studies in the Western world. It discusses the use of "indicative" heteroglosses, the modification of transplanted languages, and the influence of foreign elements on a native language. It concludes with a major chapter on social dialectology (the social aspect of linguistics) which discusses urban and rural speech, and variations within urban areas; black speech in Washington, Tennessee and Chicago; and Mexican-American speech.

    Description: En quoi une conversation multimodale en ligne via Internet se différencie-t- elle d’une conversation en face à face ? Parle-t-on davantage, avec moins de silences, de gestes, plus de sourires ? C’est pour poser les bases de ce qui est, en réalité, un nouveau champ de recherche dans l’étude des interactions communicatives qu’un même corpus de huit conversations en ligne (corpus référencé et consultable sur la base CLAPI, http://clapi.uni-lyon2.fr) a été soumis à l’analyse de dix chercheurs spécialisés dans l’analyse des conversations ou dans la communication médiée par ordinateur. Ils ont cherché à expliciter les spécificités linguistiques (orales et textuelles), phonétiques et mimogestuelles de ces conversations en visioconférence poste à poste. Ces auteurs (issus de France, États-Unis, Australie, Grande-Bretagne) visent à poser les bases descriptives de ce nouveau genre de communication par écran, à partir d’articles en français et en anglais. L’ouvrage s’adresse aux étudiants et chercheurs en sciences du langage, de l’information et de la communication, aux didacticiens, aux éthologues, aussi bien qu’aux psychologues, sociologues ou anthropologues.

    Description: The elusive study of language change deals with discernible realia, such as sounds or structured groups of sounds, or words with their intra- and interrelationships. But these empirial data are constantly changing, and even interpreting them may be influenced by new linguistic circumstances. Description of language change has the advantage of hard evidence, but uncovering the reasons behind a set of language data is not a secure task. Language Change investigates the many facets of human activity that bear on this complex field. It relies on the polar areas of phonology, with its immediate alliance to physiology and physics, and semantics, with its penetration into the meaning of the world at large. Irmengard Rauch and Gerald F. Carr have organized teh volume in four sections—Contemporary Change, Historical Change, Linguists on Language Change, and Strata and Language Change—with almost half the chapters offering contemporary data.The distinguished contributors are Barbara Greim, Wayne Harbert, Henry and Renee KahaneI, Ilse Lehist, Winfred P. Lehmann, David Lightfoot, Yakov Malkiel, Raven McDavid Jr., Els Oksaar, Edgar Polome, Irmengard Rauch, and Frans VanCoetsem. Their range of topics reflects the kaleidoscopic essence of language change itself and will be of falue not only to linguists and semioticians but to historians, sociologists, philosophers, and anthropologists as well.

    Description: Cet ouvrage est fondé sur quatorze enregistrements, réalisés par Jean-Claude Chevalier et Pierre Encrevé, en 1982, auprès de linguistes francisants notoires, participants, dirigeants de la spectaculaire expansion de cette discipline de 1958 à 1968. Le questionnement a porté principalement sur la création étonnante, par ces linguistes, en quelques années, d’une douzaine de revues devenues instruments d’un combat qui a permis d’imposer le structuralisme linguistique en France comme modèle des sciences. Une première partie présente la transcription presque intégrale des entretiens de 1982, comme l’évocation d’autant de destins, d’André Martinet à Julia Kristeva, commentés et mis en valeur. Une deuxième partie regroupe les données selon une méthode d’analyse des champs, telle qu’elle était alors préconisée par Pierre Bourdieu qui a lui-même participé aux débuts de l’entreprise ; cette étude a déjà été publiée dans le numéro 63 "Vers une histoire sociale de la linguistique" de la revue Langue française en 1984. On lira enfin la transcription d’un entretien réalisé entre les deux responsables en 2005, visant à mettre en perspective ces enquêtes selon un point de vue contemporain. Entretiens inédits avec : André Martinet, Georges Straka, Gérald Antoine, André Reboullet, Jean Stéfanini, Algirdas Julien Greimas, Jean Dubois, Antoine Culioli, Bernard Pottier, Jean Perrot, Bernard Quemada, Nicolas Ruwet, Maurice Gross, Julia Kristeva.

    Description: Les textes ici réunis ont pour trait commun de s’interroger sur quelques articulations du dialogue et de l’interprétation. Le dialogue, tel qu’on l’envisage, ne se caractérise pas par une grammaire des enchaînements, mais plutôt par des ensembles de mouvements, d’événements discursifs plus ou moins imprévisibles aussi bien pour le destinataire concret que pour le locuteur lui-même, et éventuellement pour les tiers lecteurs. Ces mouvements peuvent se faire dans l’échange même ou, selon la tradition d’analyse ouverte par Bakhtine, prendre sens par rapport aux paroles transmises par la tradition. C’est en cela que le dialogue constitue une interprétation, qui est d’abord une prise en compte de la diversité des régimes de signification tels qu’ils se dessinent dans le déroulement de l’échange. La rencontre avec des dialogues d’enfants met sans doute mieux en évidence ce que ces mouvements peuvent avoir d’irruptif, les dialogues qu’échangent les adultes étant souvent plus prévisibles. En étudiant ces dialogues, on ne cherche pas tant à voir les façons dont la langue des enfants se rapproche ou s’éloigne de celle des adultes qu’à se demander, ce qui n’est pas la même chose, comment les enfants se réapproprient le langage. Enfin, en ce qui concerne les aspects de la psychopathologie, on tente dans le même esprit à isoler non des symptômes, mais ce qui manifeste la réaction d’un sujet à ce qui lui arrive.

    Description: This second edition updates a text which laid the foundations of the field of critical ethnographic sociolinguistics, and which has become an essential reference and important teaching tool. The book lays the foundation of this approach through a longue durée ethnography of the practices, discourses and ideologies of language and nation in francophone Canada. The new edition provides an update of the development of the ethnographic sites discussed, as well as on the theoretical, methodological, political and ethical aspects of the approach.
