Peut-on parler d'une filiation des ciblistes en France?

This study takes Sourciers et Ciblistes, a paper written by Jean Rene Ladmiral as its starting point. He classifies major scholars of France and other countries as either source-oriented or target-oriented, and categorizes himself as a target-oriented author. Paying attention to how very heterogeneous scholars from Cicero to Nida have been classified as target oriented, this study observes how target-oriented authors succeed and affect one another. To this end, major target-oriented authors from France, namely Vinay & Darbelnet, Mounin, and the Paris School which proposed the Interpretive Theory will be discussed, followed by an observation of their similarities and differences.
