| Résumé anglais |
This article aims at providing a comprehensive view of the notion of polyphony in semantics. In the polyphonic approach, any utterance is seen as a multiple-voiced entity, or as a show produced and conducted by the utterer (the locuteur), with several characters (the énonciateurs) on the stage, each representing a viewpoint. The meaning of the utterance is determined by the position of the utterer as regards the different viewpoints : he may or may not adopt a viewpoint, reject it, etc. The first part of the article is devoted to a historical survey of the notion and its problems. The second part intends to make the basic definitions more explicit as regards the utterer and the different voices that he evokes as well as their specific linguistic properties. It examines the different semantic theories based on the notion of polyphony, as well as the type of semantics they advocate. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
