D’où vient le sens? Remarques sur la sémio-phénoménologie de Greimas

Greimas’ structural semantics has always intrigued both linguists and philosophers of meaning, because of its ambiguous relations to language and to life-world phenomenology. These critical remarks attempt to clarify these questions by asking a simpler one: Where does meaning come from? Is language, discourse, or the human mind its base? My discussion examines the Paris School’s semio-phenomenology and its anchoring of meaning both in discourse and in Greimas’ “natural world,” understood as a Husserlian Lebenswelt, and even, mysteriously, in an experiential world which is made of discourse. I show the possibility of a clarification of the concepts of discourse and experiential world, and a solution that interprets the work of Greimas and his school in the framework of a cognitive semiotics which is still in its beginnings
