Dialogisme et polyphonie dans le discours argumentatif
Dialogism and polyphony in argumentative speech

Summary/Abstract: Our contribution is in line with that of discourse pragmatics which contests the thesis of the uniqueness of the speaker subject: indeed, no utterance can be attributed to a single speaker. The utterance is the result of the interlocutors' interaction, who cooperate within the field of discourse. So much so, in an argumentative discourse which is dialogic, polyphonic, active and which has a persuasive goal, we can identify not only" the voice of the speaker" but also"the voice of the adversary"; this is evoked in order to be attacked and discredited in front of the audience.
