From Narrative Arguments to Arguments That Narrate

Adrien Frenay
Marion Carel

Résumé

Based on the study of an article written by Maurice Barrès on the 25 August, 1914, the present chapter aims at showing that studies of the relations between narration and argument must take into account not only narrative arguments but also arguments that narrate. On the ground of an analysis of the organization of contents (foregrounding and backgrounding) by means of the Semantic Blocks Theory (Carel M, L’entrelacement argumentatif. Lexique, discours et blocs sémantiques. Honoré Champion, Paris, 2011), it shows that the argumentative structure, in the foreground of the text, can produce and manage the narrative one. Finally, we draw conclusions regarding presupposition, textual organisation and utterance acts: (a) presupposed contents can complete main contents; (b) on a textual scale, backgrounded contents can build up a secondary structure, here a narrative one, and therefore a single text may hold several structures; (c) utterances acts may be described by the backgrounded contents.
