Abstract
In this article, I intend to re-examine the perspective known in French linguistics as the “Theorie de la polyphonie” by discussing the nature of the “voices”, technically called enonciateurs , that the term polyphony allows us to “hear” (or to refuse to “hear”) within the meaning of utterances. After briefly criticizing the conception of enonciateurs as sources of viewpoints, I will define them as “tones” (section 1). This non-exhaustive presentation will describe three enonciateurs (section 2) and offer some discursive criteria for identifying them (section 3).
