Résumé anglais From the expressive helper to the "semiotic plan" (stylistics and rhetoricin competitive examinations "Agrégation" and "CAPES"). This paper studies the official reports about the competitive examinations (to choose teachers) named in France "Agrégation" and "Capes" from 1985 tol998. Our purpose is to define the place of rhetoric into the stylistic descriptions (which are required for a specific test, coming within these examinations), and, further, to precise with witch theoretical presuppositions, and with witch special effects on the description itself. Furthermore, we suggest to place all this facts onto the "rhetoric dimension" of discourses, and more generally, in the perspective of the "enunciative praxis". This analysis is first concerned with underlining the main semantic, syntactic and enunciative categories witch link the rhetorical analysis with the stylistic one. But, on the whole, and secondly, the matter is to examine how the stylistic analysis makes the rhetorical figures significant. Our final proposition is to consider that the stylistic analysis converts each rhetorical figure, and the whole of them gathered in the text, too, in a canonical sequence composed with three stages: (1) the stage of "confrontation" between two (at least) domains or enunciative positions, (2) the stage of "enunciative assuming" witch modifies the respective weight of the confronted domains, and (3) the stage of "resolution" of the semantic conflict, which defines the conditions and the process of interpretation.
