Résumé anglais Quoting authors in late 1 7th century dictionaries (Richelet and Furetière). The well-known opposition between dictionaries that quote the authors, Richelet and Furetière, and the dictionary of the Académie that refuses to do so, has as its counterpart an opposition opposing in turn Richelet and Furetière. In Richelet' s dictionary (1680), quoting « good authors » ensures the description of good usage, the quotation acting at once as a source for the selection of entries and as a procedure of exemplification (syntactic value and semantic-rhetorical value). In Furetière (1690), the quotations, rare and selective (in verse only), correspond to literary intentions, where Furetière expresses his literary feeling and manifests a very modern sense of extracting quotations.
