Résumé anglais |
Anaphoric celui-ci as a mentional NP. In its anaphoric uses, celui-ci is not an anaphoric nominal, as many authors have observed. Nevertheless, the claim that celui-ci is a NP without a noun (and not a true pronoun) allows to see it as a member of a natural class including NPs like le premier, le dernier, ce dernier. . . We propose to label these NPs 'mentional NPs'. Basically, we define mentional NPs as NPs associated with the discourse referent of a previous mention identified by its relative position. This paper considers then the role of celui-ci in reference chains of some literary texts, showing that celui-ci behaves as a 'counter-topic' : it is used for an accessible discourse referent, preserving the status of another discourse referent as the main topic of the discourse.
