This volume presents a reasoned study of the discourse connectives of attainment of the French language. For the most part, the studies on connectives are based on referentialist descriptive frameworks, which are sustained more or less explicitly on what we have called the general problem of causality, the epistemological foundation of a scientific paradigm which has been used for centuries but which, in our opinion, is now outdated. In the first place, we have submitted this old paradigm to ...

The book is the first corpus-based study giving a comprehensive overview of English items which have been used as adverbial connectors ('conjuncts', 'linking adverbials'), from Old English to Present-Day English. The author analyses different characteristics of the make-up, functions and use of connectives, and considers morphological and syntactic factors as well as pragmatic, textlinguistic and socio-cultural aspects.

Cet ouvrage porte sur les connecteurs de l'anglais, envisagés aussi à travers la comparaison avec le français. Il rassemble huit contributions qui s'appuient sur des corpus diversifiés, authentiques ou traduits, issus de la langue écrite et de la langue orale. Au-delà du rôle informationnel des connecteurs, quel type de relation construisent-ils entre les propositions qu'ils relient ? Lieu privilégié de l'interaction entre syntaxe, sémantique, lexique et pragmatique, les connecteurs amènent le linguiste à s'interroger sur la manière dont ces domaines s'articulent dans l'organisation textuelle. En confrontant différents connecteurs proches mais non synonymes pour autant, en opposant la connexion à l'absence de connecteur, les différentes contributions de ce volume explorent des relations discursives de continuité, contraste et rupture, et montrent quel rôle les connecteurs jouent dans la cohésion du discours. Il ressort de cet examen que concession, contradiction et reformulation mettent en jeu le point de vue de l'autre en tant que pivot incontournable de toute argumentation.
