Médiativité, polyphonie et modalité en français - Etudes synchroniques et diachroniques

This volume unites and confronts the work concerning three domains of French pragmatic semantics that are usually separated: mediativity, modality and polyphony. Beyond the differences and specificities of each of these subjects is the question that unites them into a single interrogation, regarding the relationship between the author of an utterance and the discourse and the content of what is said.
This work positions itself at this intersection, where general theoretical studies and more specific studies cross paths, a meeting point between synchronic and diachronic analysis.
