Annotation

Les trois phenomenes bien connus de synonymie, homonymie et polisemie servant de point de depart a cette etude qui vice a tirer au clair le proleme de la signification et linguistique. On y examine quelles sont les implications des methodes structurale, fonctionnelle ou transformationnelle-generative dans l'analyse de ces trois phenomenes du language. On discute entre autres les idees de Bloomfield, Breal, Fodor, de Groot, Heger, Hjelmslev, Jakobson, Katz, Kooij, Lyons, Marcus, Martinet, Mounin, Prieto, Saussure, et Ullmann. L'auteur a evite autant que possible toute formalisation et n'utilise ni la logique symbolique ni la quantification mathematique qu'on trouve souvent dans les etudes linguistiques consacrees a la semantique. Le livre s'adresse non seulement aux linguisies, mais aussi aux etudiants de langues, et plus specialement aux etudiants de francais qui s'interessent a la stylistique et aimeraient savoir dans quelle mesure l'analyse semantique se revele utile dans la perspective de la critique litteraire.This attempt to clarify the problem of meaning in linguistics takes as its starting point the well-known phenomena of synonymy, homonymy, and polysemy. It investigates the implications of structural, fuctional, and transformational-generative approaches to these three features of laguage, and discusses the views of, among others, Bloomfield, Breal, Fodor, de Groot, Heger, Hjelmslev, Jakobson, Katz, Kooij, Lyons, Marcus, Martinet, Mounin, Prieto, Saussure, and Ullmann. Professor Schogt has avoided formalization as much as possible and uses none of the symbolic logic or mathematical quantification often found in linguistic studies of semantics. The book is addressed primarily to students of language, specifically to students of the French language who have a particular interest in stylistics and wish to know what insight semantic analysis can give into the problems of literary criticism.
