Abstract
Abstract In elaborating his notion of generative trajectory of meaning, with the intent to explain the abstractions which take place during the act of reading a text, Greimas borrows Benveniste’s original concept of enunciation as an instance of mediation, and reformulates it. An instance is a set of categories that creates a theoretical domain, therefore, an analysis domain. This paper explores the epistemological reasons that led Greimas to place enunciation on the path from the semio-narrative level to the discursive level of the generative trajectory of meaning, and shows the scope of the Greimasian concept of enunciation, that is, the categories and operations included therein. In addition, it presents the modifications to the Greimasian concept suggested by tensive semiotics, and discusses the possibility of reconciling both models.
