Abstract
Abstract: In this article we will study the management of the anaphoric pronouns in Memories of the Cardinal of Retz. This study will take account of the role of the various terms of recovery to ensure the referential continuity of the text like its informational structure. Our objective consists in analyzing certain anaphoric relationship while focussing on the nature of the relation between the anaphoric pronoun and its antecedent. We will try to show that this relation is generally difficult to establish since the presence of other competitor referents in the same statement contributes to the emergence of additional interpretative effects. This contribution aims to look further into the study of the identification of the topics within the statement and primarily within the framework of a referential ambiguity when it proves to be impossible to attach the anaphoric pronoun to its antecedent. Résumé: Dans cet article nous étudierons la gestion des pronoms anaphoriques dans Mémoires du Cardinal de Retz. L’étude tiendra compte du rôle des différents termes de reprise destinés à assurer la continuité référentielle du texte ainsi que sa structure informationnelle. Notre objectif consiste à analyser certains rapports anaphoriques tout en mettant l’accent sur la nature de la relation entre le pronom anaphorique et son antécédent. Nous montrerons que cette relation est le plus souvent difficile à établir étant donné que la présence d’autres référents concurrents dans le même énoncé contribue à l’émergence d’effets interprétatifs supplémentaires. Nous approfondirons l’étude de l’identification des topiques au sein de l’énoncé et essentiellement dans le cadre d’une ambiguïté référentielle lorsqu’il s’avère impossible de rattacher le pronom anaphorique à son antécédent. Mots-clés: anaphore pronominale, pronom anaphorique, saillance, antécédent, topique, accessibilité référentielle, ambiguïté référentielle.
