La grammaire de texte

Abstract

The author has chosen to organise this article around a set of five chapters which discuss the fundamental principles of the Textual Grammar (text definition, need for situational context, relationships between text and discourse, coherence rules appliance to macro and micro level, referential relationships and intratextual semantic affinities, role of temporal relations in accomplishing textual coherence and cohesion) and examine some linguistic categories from the perspective of their likeness or unlikeness within sentence grammar and enunciative grammar perspective (semantic-pragmatic and syntactic-morphologic aspects: agreement, gender, number, textual roles and syntactic functions, actant roles and their valences).
