Dissertation Abstract:
Study of the French discourse markers 'donc' and 'alors' within the
framework of the semantics of argumentation and enunciation. Our thesis
proposes to clear away the old scientific paradigm of causality -
causation, attainment, conclusivity - from the grammatical and linguistic
descriptions of these markers. We understand that this descriptive
principle is grounded in referential theories of the language. We
demonstrate the lack of theoretical consistency of this scientific
paradigm, and we raise a new descriptive proposal for this pair of markers
in a non-referential theory of the language, within the specific framework
of discourse dynamics. We show how these markers emerge generating
discourse dynamics from argumentative or conclusive types, which we
associate with a specific argumentative and enunciative configuration, that
we describe with heuristic instruments: semantic blocks, and enunciative
algorithms.
