L’objectif de cette démarche est de proposer une analyse des différents emplois du marqueur dans la perspective d’en fournir une représentation unifiée apte à rendre compte de l’ensemble des valeurs qui lui sont associées. Ce travail vise notamment à pallier un déficit, nous semble-t-il, de la littérature spécialisée. En effet, si de nombreux travaux ont été consacrés à to dans le cadre du traitement de l’infinitif anglais (To et l'infinitif anglais: détermination et opérations énonciatives, J. Chuquet 1986, Aspect, actance et modalité: systématique de l'infinitif anglais, D. Bottineau 1998, The English Infinitive, P. Duffley 1992, pour ne citer que les travaux les plus volumineux), les analyses de to dans ses emplois prépositionels prenant en compte une grande variété d’emplois du marqueur sont beaucoup plus rares à notre connaissance (on peut tout de même citer C. Guimier 1995-1996 et plus récemment, A. Tyler et V. Evans 2003, 2004). La linguistique cognitive s’est, en effet, emparée du traitement des valeurs spatiales du marqueur, souvent au détriment de ses autres emplois (cf., entre autres, J. Zwarts 2005 et 2007). Quant aux grammaires de construction, elles abordent parfois l’analyse de to, dans l’opposition entre construction ditransitive et construction prépositionnelle de certains procès, entre autres, mais elles n’ont pas vocation à s’attarder sur les spécificités des marqueurs entrant en jeu dans ces constructions (cf. notamment A. Goldberg 1995, chapitre 6). Le présent travail ne prétend nullement à l’exhaustivité, pour une raison bien simple qui est que le marqueur est associé à une grande variété de contextes, et par conséquent, à une grande variété de valeurs : l’Oxford English Dictionary en donne dix-huit définitions différentes, le Collins Cobuild en propose dix-neuf, dans des contextes très divers. Les définitions 6 et 13 ci- dessous, proposées à titre d’exemple, constituent une illustration de l’hétérogénéité de ce panel de valeurs : 6. If you say that something happens to someone’s surprise, relief, horror, etc, you mean that feelings of surprise, relief, horror, etc are caused by what happens.” 4 13 If you say that something is to someone’s advantage, liking, etc, you mean that it is in accordance with it. (définitions du Collins Cobuild English Language Dictionary) Nous n’avons, dans le cadre de cette thèse, rendu compte que d’un nombre restreint de ces emplois, en mettant en avant ceux qui nous ont paru particulièrement représentatifs du fonctionnement du marqueur. Par ailleurs, le syntagme prépositionnel dont to constitue la tête se rencontre dans des positions syntaxiques diverses, ce qui implique à chaque fois la nécessité de prendre en considération les caractéristiques syntactico-sémantiques des différents termes qui constituent l’énoncé et déterminent l’interprétation qui lui est associée. Ce travail n’opèrera donc pas de clivage entre la syntaxe et la sémantique, de même qu’il s’appuiera sur des éléments pragmatiques. L’ensemble de ces paramètres sera pris en compte dans l’analyse qui est proposée. Avant d’entrer dans le vif du sujet, nous nous apprêtons à situer notre travail théoriquement et à expliquer la méthode qui a été la nôtre. 5 1. Remarques préliminaires et organisation du travail 1.1. Ancrage théorique Parmi les analyses récentes de to, et, plus généralement, des prépositions, une grande majorité se réclame du domaine théorique de la linguistique cognitive. C’est le cas notamment des travaux de B. Bergen et N. Chang (2000), de B. Cappelle et R. Declerck (2005), de T. Nakazawa (2006), de A. Tyler et V. Evans (2003 et 2004), de J. Zwarts et Y. Winter (2000) et de J. Zwarts (2005, 2007)1. La plupart de ces travaux reposent sur les principes posés par R. Langacker dans Foundations of cognitive grammar (1987-1991), par G. Lakoff (1997), par L. Talmy (1983 et 2000 notamment), par A. Herskovits (1986)2, K. Coventry (1998), ou encore par C. Vandeloise (1986). Les analyses s’inscrivant dans le cadre de la linguistique cognitive ne sont pas homogènes, dans la mesure où celle-ci ne constitue pas un courant théorique unique, mais plutôt un ensemble de principes sur lesquels les auteurs fondent plusieurs types d’analyse, comme le souligne C. Guimier (2006). Leur point commun, pour ce qui concerne l’étude des marqueurs prépositionels, est qu’elles donnent la primauté à leur valeur spatiale, et considèrent généralement leurs autres emplois comme étant dérivés de cette valeur première par métaphore, concept à propos duquel É. Gilbert (2006) souligne qu’ « il n’est jamais vraiment clairement défini. » 1 Les travaux de J. Zwarts se situent dans le cadre théorique de la sémantique formelle. Toutefois, son traitement des prépositions s’appuie sur les conclusions de R. Jackendoff, dont le traitement des prépositions est largement inspiré par la linguistique cognitive. 2 « The meanings I propose for the prepositions, the ideal meanings, share properties with prototypes, but are better suited to the domain of spatial relations. The ideal meaning of a preposition is a geometrical idea, from which all uses of a preposition derive by means of various adaptations and shifts.” (A. Herskovits, 1986: 39) 6 De fait, l’un des problèmes majeurs posés par l’utilisation de la métaphore comme outil théorique dans les analyses d’inspiration cognitiviste est que ce concept ne fait jamais l’objet d’une définition précise en tant qu’outil métalinguistique. Une autre conséquence des principes fondant la démarche de ces linguistes est que l’analyse des emplois non spatiaux des marqueurs est souvent reléguée au second plan, y compris dans les travaux qui se veulent moins géométriques et plus fonctionnalistes (A. Tyler et V. Evans, 2003). Il est exact que l’analyse diachronique (voir M.L. Groussier 1984) témoigne du fait que les prépositions ayant un emploi spatial ont généralement vu cet emploi attesté avant les autres interprétations qui leur sont associées. Cette primauté chronologique ne signifie pas pour autant qu’en synchronie, la valeur spatiale de ces marqueurs acquière une quelconque préséance sur les autres valeurs.

  • Media Kit Yeasayer
    MEDIA KIT YEASAYER CHEVRON LIGHTHOUSE SAT 22 FEB TICKETS: $49 Click here for images YEASAYER “We were jokingly calling this our classic rock record at one point, referencing The Turtles or the Stones or Fleetwood Mac,” laughs Yeasayer’s Chris Keating while describing his band’s fifth LP, Erotic Reruns. But really, this is Yeasayer distilling all their strengths, while paring them to their essence. Intros are shortened, hooks are immediate, and its songs are concise, all the fat trimmed. This is an eminently danceable record that also encourages its audience to think, an attribute the band aren’t given enough credit for which they desperately deserve. Their societal and political commentary is erudite and trenchant. But ultimately, Erotic Reruns finds Keating, singer/multi-instrumentalist Anand Wilder, and bassist/singer Ira Wolf Tuton at an arresting peak creatively, their beguiling chemistry palpable throughout. Erotic Reruns is light years removed from the band’s 2007 opening volley, All Hour Cymbals, as they found their footing on their own terms, impervious to outside “scenes,” and the then ubiquitous DIY culture so prevalent in Brooklyn, with classic ‘00s singles “2080” and “Sunrise” foreshadowing the greatness the band would fully realize on Cymbals.
