Abstract
In university syllabuses Discourse analysis and Interpretation appear as separate courses. Nevertheless, as our teaching experience showed us, they are quite complementary and rely on a conceptual basis that nourish our students’ knowledge of discourse and the practice of it. As this paper aims at showing, the analysis of one of Emmanuel Macron’s discourses on the Gilets jaunes brought us to the understanding that being familiar with some discursive strategies may help future interpreters’ performance especially when knowledge is transferred from one discipline to the other, in an integrated approach.
