Sommario/riassunto

Quel est donc le salaud qui bat les cartes à ma place se surprend à marmotter entre ses dents Joë Bousquet alors qu’il vient une fois encore, dans le demi-jour ou les demi-ténèbres de sa chambre, d’échouer à faire ce qu’on appelle parfois une réussite mais qu’on serait mieux avisé ici d’appeler patience. Car il a beau recommencer - à chaque fois remettant symboliquement sa vie en jeu -, les cartes se disposent dans un ordre exactement contraire "à la bonne marche du coup", et la partie s’interrompt. Il y a certes de quoi désespérer. Rien pourtant de désespéré chez Joë Bousquet qui continue, non sans malice, à provoquer l’étrange, le diabolique adversaire qui, à tous les coups, vient lui couper ses meilleurs jeux. Etrange adversaire et peut être étrange partenaire... Effectivement, tout se passe à la longue comme si "l’homme couché" ne faisait en fait semblant de jouer que pour bientôt sentir se lever en lui ce double obscur. Comme s’il cherchait à manipuler ce frère d’ombre qui, précisément, le dépossède de toute maîtrise... C’est un paradoxe de cette nature qui fait marcher l’œuvre de l’homme "coupé en deux", et la fait marcher comme elle peut, c’est-à-dire le plus souvent sur la tête. D’où la forme du livre que voici : seize chapitres qui sont comme les cartes d’un jeu amputé de moitié. Distribués dans un ordre semi-aléatoire, ils se proposent à



chaque fois de relancer une nouvelle image de Joë Bousquet. Une nouvelle figure. La seule règle imposée veut que cette figure soit - comme celles bien sûr des cartes à jouer, vignettes aux deux visages - systématiquement dédoublée.

Sommario/riassunto

Throughout history, linguists and literary scholars have been impelled by curiosity about particular linguistic or literary phenomena to seek to observe them in action in original texts. The fruits of each earlier enquiry in turn nourish the desire to continue to acquire knowledge, through further observation of newer linguistic facts. As time goes by, the corpus linguist operates increasingly in the awareness of what has gone before. Corpus Linguistics, thirty years on, is less an innocent sortie into corpus territory on the basis of a hunch than an informed, critical reassessment of existing analytical orthodoxy, in the light of new data coming on stream. This volume comprises twenty-two articles penned by members of the ICAME (International Computer Archive of Modern and Mediaeval English) association, which together provide a critical and informed reappraisal of the facts, data, methods and tools of Corpus Linguistics which are available today. Authors reconsider the boundaries of the discipline, exploring its areas of commonality with Sociolinguistics, Language Variation, Discourse Linguistics, and Lexical Statistics and showing how that commonality is potentially of immense benefit to practitioners in the fields concerned. The volume culminates in the report of a timely and novel expert panel discussion on the role of Corpus Linguistics in the study of English as a global language. This encompasses issues such as English as an international lingua franca, ‘norms’ for global English, and the question of ‘ownership’, or who qualifies as a native speaker.
