Argumentative Values of Causality in French Constructions Like <i>s’il échoue, c’est qu’il n’apprend pas ses leçons</i>
Abstrak
Our paper focuses on the expression of causality, in particular its argumentative values in French constructions like <i>s’il échoue, c’est qu’il n’apprend pas ses leçons</i>. It should be noted that this type of constructions <i>if P, Q</i>, is observable when <i>if P</i> is factual, i.e. when the proposition P does not necessarily express a hypothesis as is generally the case, but an event that has happened or is going to happen. Thus, we find concessional, adversarial, additive and emphatic <i>if P, Q</i> systems. However, in the context of our paper, we will only devote ourselves to causative if-constructions. Our work will be structured in three parts. First, we will highlight the functioning of causality in factual <i>if</i>-constructions, then the enunciative postures generated by causality and finally the self-presentation of the speaker in French causative non hypothetical constructions.
