Résumé anglais The origins of the presentative form « voici/voilà » and its evolution until the end ofthe 16th century. This paper deals with the different variants ofthe presentative form voici/voila in Medieval French (mainly : ve(e)z cilla, veci/vela, voici/voila) and examines how their uses changed between the I Ith century and the end ofthe I6th century. Describing the decrease of ve(e)z ci and the rise ofthe modem variants voici/voila, as well as the growing importance of the variants including the adverb la, it stresses the relationship that may be established between these morphosyntactical changes and the evolution ofthe enunciative properties of the presentative form.
