Investigating pan-Romance prepositional adverbials
Author(s): Inka WissnerAvailable online: 05 October 2023More LessAbstractComplex adverbials built with the pattern ‘Preposition + Adjective (PA)’ such as Portuguese em especial ‘especially’ or Romanian de sigur ‘for sure’ display a remarkable frequency and pan-Romance consistency. Nevertheless, this pattern has been largely neglected by research. The ‘Third Way’ project intends to fill this gap, arguing that PAs are a relevant third way of constructing adverbials, aside with short adverbs and adverbs in -mente. It subjects prepositional adverbials to a historico-varietal analysis in a comparative pan-Romance approach to trace their trajectory from Latin up to now. This article presents an enquiry design for field research that allows examining the adverbials’ current usage and ongoing change in substandard varieties of all major Romance languages. The results are meant to help reconstruct the diachrony of PAs in Romance, especially in view of the spoken vernacular tradition.

Linee di tendenza aggiornate della formazione di parola dell’italiano contemporaneo
Author(s): M. Silvia MicheliAvailable online: 05 October 2023More LessAstrattaL’articolo delinea un profilo della formazione di parola dell’italiano a partire dai primi anni Duemila, sulla base di un repertorio di neoformazioni attestate negli ultimi due decenni. L’analisi conferma alcune tendenze già identificate da studi precedenti, tra cui la preminenza della derivazione come strategia più frequentemente adoperata dai parlanti e la significativa produttività della composizione con un elemento formativo (più frequentemente a sinistra) e una parola autonoma. D’altra parte, i dati raccolti e analizzati suggeriscono alcuni aspetti innovativi verso cui orientare la ricerca futura, tra cui la formazione e la possibile grammaticalizzazione degli elementi formativi e l’impiego di elementi non italiani nella creazione di nuove parole strutturalmente ibride.

« Une fois piquée au jeu… »
Author(s): Anne Beate MaursethAvailable online: 24 August 2023More LessAbstractLe jeu libertin auquel s’adonnent les protagonistes des Liaisons dangereuses se fonde sur un pari, qui est un jeu de hasard. Toute l’action du roman tourne autour de la question de savoir si le vicomte de Valmont arrive à séduire la pieuse Mme de Tourvel ou non. Par leur pari à ce sujet, Valmont aussi bien que la marquise de Merteuil se trouvent dans une situation contradictoire. En tant que libertins, leur projet commun est d’éradiquer tout hasard. En pariant, ils se livrent, au contraire, au hasard, dont ils confirment par là l’importance, voire l’incontournabilité. Le présent article vise à analyser le caractère contradictoire du projet libertin dans ce roman épistolaire célèbre, qui n’est pas seulement, comme on l’a dit, un chant de cygne de l’aristocratie à l’aube de la Révolution française, mais qui implique également une critique de l’enthousiasme pour la raison et le calcul à l’âge des Lumières.

Dernières nouvelles
Author(s): Laude Ngadi MaïssaAvailable online: 02 June 2023More LessAbstractThis article shows the relevance of “engaged” or “committed” literature for “post-colonial” African writers in the two collections of short stories called Dernières nouvelles. Through the analysis of narrative utterance, we argue that their position reflects the African fight against colonialism and neo-colonialism. The writers execute a kind of continuum by claiming a literary tradition inherited from the founders of the Negritude movement. However, inspired by the modern context, the writers distance themselves from the radical and racial engagement of their predecessors. This difference can be observed in the use of various literary means, such as on the pretext, “silent cry” and the oxymoron. The article finally argues that there is a contradiction between the criticism of neo-colonial practices and the writers’ collaboration with French publishing houses and different cultural associations.
