Abstract
This article makes a provisional assessment of the question of enunciative postures. It begins by distinguishing co-enunciation and co-locution and defining postures with respect to the role of the enunciators in the co-construction of points of view (POV): co-enunciation corresponds to the speaker’s co-construction of a common POV, which commits them as enunciators. Over-enunciation is defined as an unequal co-construction of a dominating POV and under-enunciation consists of the unequal co-construction of a dominated POV. The second part illustrates the role of these different postures in the analysis and interpretation of texts with the aim of optimising their pedagogical exploitation by defining the enunciative stakes and the interactional positioning underlying in the construction of POV.
