«Aborder la linguistique» is an introductory guide to linguistics by Dominique Maingueneau, published by Points in paperback (177 pages, in French).
A popularising work that brings linguistics to those unfamiliar with it: it starts from the idea that language is the most characteristic faculty of human beings, recalls that the discipline only emerged in the twentieth century, and presents its main fields, problems and schools of study.
Part of the Points Essais collection; new revised and expanded edition, with bibliographic references (pp. 175-178).
A work intended for linguistics students and teachers, as well as readers interested in beginning their study of the language sciences.
Dominique Maingueneau is a French linguist, emeritus Professor at Sorbonne University (Paris). His research focuses on discourse analysis. It associates a pragmatic outlook on discourse with linguistic «enunciation» theories and some aspects of Michel Foucault's line of thought.
