Résumé:
This thesis rhetorically examines a modern functional linguistic
approach of “Intentionality and discourse multiplicity”. The main objective is
the motivation of Arab researchers to initiate topics about cognitive language,
its nature, its role in communicative events, and its effect on discourse
creativity in order to produce and to understand the received discourse. In this
study, we tried to emphasize the influence of intentionality on the cognitive
language area; focusing on intentionality as the essential base of human
reasoning. Therefore, our hypothesis was established in the context of natural
language philosophy (the pragmatics of the third degree) where we compared
the equivalence between logical language and natural language. The
hypothesis answer was established in the theoretical proposal produced by the
pioneers of natural language philosophy such as ‘Austin’, ‘Searle’, and ‘Grice’.
Moreover, we mentioned various perceptions on discourse production and
comprehension focusing on the most practical approaches tackling the new
structure of functional discourse theory. The research practically highlighted
other linguistic proposals linked to the role of intentionality in the multiplicity
and the enrichment of daily life people discourse. We tried especially to
propose interpretations and even some amendments about the properties of
discourse acts, and illocutionary discourse force. Ultimately, this research
showed with examples of actual speech the influence of individual and
common intentionality on the motivation of discursive interactions involved
within different cases, arguments, interviews, and even speeches paralogues.
