11. Les historiens devant la linguistique. Nouveau gadget ou constitution de l'objet discursif ?

11. Régine Robin : Historians and linguistics. Resuming her own research either in progress or about to be published, R. R. insists on the double necessity for the historian to have a good knowledge of linguistic methods, and to know how to discern what they can legitimately borrow from them. In fact " if the historian can have recourse to linguistics, it can only be to the linguistics of " discours still largely to be elaborated». This linguistics of " discours " should investigate more particularly the concept of " enonciation " put forward by Jakobson and Benveniste. It should also investigate he concept of ideology (in the Marxist sense), that is to say, some- how or other, it should get back to history, forced into the background by structuralist ideology.Robin Régine. 11.
