In this paper, we examine the various uses of the terms correlation and correlative through the evolution of French Grammar. The adjective correlative is first used by Du Marsais in two different senses. When it is masculine, it denotes an 'identity relation' between two words linked by rules of grammatical agreement. In the feminine, the term means a bidirectional dependency between two clauses. These uses disappear during the XIXth century because ofthe hierarchical model of the complex sentence and semantic classification of the subordinate clauses. Under the influence of the Latin grammar, the study of the correlative systems develops in the XXth century as a particular form of subordination, as an anaphoric relation between morphologically similar terms. The correlation also contributes to transcend the opposition between parataxis and hypotaxis in the description of the complex sentence. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
