The opposition
Understanding the history of linguistics requires recognition of the full range of the debates in any given period. The first half of the seventeenth century is pivotal in the history of standard French. The court poet Malherbe, in his commentaries on the poetry of Philippe Desportes and then in mentoring younger literati, excised what he considered the excesses of language of his immediate predecessors. His approach was furthered by a circle of …

Understanding prescription in language. A corpus-based approach
We define prescription as any intervention in the way another person speaks. Long excluded from linguistics as unscientific, prescription is in fact a natural part of linguistic behavior. We seek to understand the logic and method of prescriptivism through the study of usage manuals: their authors, sources and audience; their social context; the categories of “errors” targeted; the justification for correction; the phrasing of prescription; the r…

Les métaphores politico-juridiques dans l'histoire de la linguistique prescriptive du français au XVIIe s
Les liens étroits entre la politique et la linguistique se révèlent dans l’emploi des métaphores dans les deux domaines. Les métaphores du pouvoir politique et légal sont dominantes pendant la période où le français classique se dessine. Les théoriciens de l’état, les fondateurs des sciences politiques modernes, disputent la meilleure forme de l’état idéal, principalement entre une monarchie absolue et une monarchie contrainte par des institution…

When Children’s Literature Transcends its Genre
A book such as Alice in Wonderland , written for a girl, but nowadays understandable only by adults, the translation of proper nouns can reveal the audience for which translators have addressed their works. This article looks at the translation of proper nouns. These cultural traits are first names, historical references, place names and names of languages: should these be changed to facilitate comprehension by children? This study is then used t…

What links the formation of the state, the formation of linguistic norms, and the development of a grammatical tradition of the state language? In France governmental institutions not only help to spread the state language, but also inspire the first analyses of that language. The model for the grammatisation of French, and the context to promote such a process, is the formation of a national judicial system, through the demand that customary law…

Durkheim, Language, and History
How do we go about understanding the « classic texts » of sociological theory ? This paper begins by reviewing the historicist position of Jones, with its foundations in the work of Quentin Skinner and other historians of political theory. This position then is criticized from the standpoint of the neo-Deweyan pragmatism of Richard Rorty. Specifically, Rorty's pragmatism encourages the AA. to revise Skinner's and Jone's historicism on 3 specific …
World French takes on World English
Until the late nineteenth century French was the dominant international language of modern Western Europe, and, with the spread of empire, many other areas around the globe. Now French itself feels threatened by the spread of English. The protection of the French language has both 'negative' and 'positive' aspects. On the negative, defensive side, purists rail against the specific qualities of English, and the social values these are said to repr…

New Analyses in Romance Linguistics
The twenty papers from the eighteenth Linguistic Symposium on Romance Languages deal with diverse aspects of the Romance languages and Romance linguistics. They reflect the current state of Romance studies in North America and of the particular outlook among the international group of contributors and participants to LSRL 18. The thriving research front accords central importance to formal questions of synchronic analysis. The group of seven hist…
Language variation and linguistic description in 16th-century France
The first French grammarians to consider the French language condemned variation – historical variation, geographical variation, and sociolinguistic variation. For the French language to be first among vernacular languages, it had to have fixity, to be governed by absolute rules. How can one determine if a lexical item, pronunciation feature, or morphological feature should be accepted? Some would study the best authors, but the list of such auth…
John Palsgrave's 'Lesclaircissement De La Langue Francoyse' (1530)
John Palsgrave, an Englishman, wrote the first detailed grammar of the French language, Lesclaircissement de la langue francoyse (1530). This work is remarkable not only for its length but also for its quality. Palsgrave wrote a pedagogical text for his English readers, using a system which leads the learner from the development of passive skills (interpretation, both oral andintellectual, of written texts) to the development of active skills (ex…
