Du contexte sociohistorique aux structures textuelles – Quelques précisions sur le processus de transcodage qui est à l’oeuvre dans la morphogenèse

Abstract

In this article Edmond Cros gets back to some notions at the heart of his theory. He notes more specifically that by morphogenesis he means the transcoding’s process into textual structures of the socio discursives ones which operate on the outside context. He demonstrates with some exemples how the text transcodes an initial and structural wording into different discursive fields man-aged by respective different applications. From a similar embryonic element, this process generates dissimilar transformed units called phenotexts by Edmond Cros.
