Traduire le mouvement du sens: Germen et Gestalten en sémantique textuelle des formes

This study aims at convincing translation specialists that prior to the very act of translating, it is essential to become familiar with a Theory of Meaning. Only then will it become possible to bring about a truly efficient reading and a semantic interpretation of the original text. Based on works initiated in Lexical Semantics, an original Text Semantics approach is suggested, as well as an analysis of the questions of Meaning carried out in the Philosophy of Symbolic Forms, in Phenomenology and in other works, notably those of E. Coseriu. To illustrate this theoretical framework, we offer in the semantic analysis of Chanson noire, a poem by Louis Aragon.
