Abstract(s)
Taking as reference an oral corpus of life histories collected in interviews, this paper proposes an analysis of the act of assertion within the framework of speech acts theory and of P. Attal's propositions. First, we consider the functioning of evaluative assertions with positive axiological value. Second, we focus on assertions with a negative axiological value and we analyse the interactional role of fuzziness markers: diminutives as softeners, adjectives' evaluative suffixes, sequences of justification as “mitigatory comments” and tag questions. Finally, we study the strategic use of assertions with impersonal references and of agreement assertions with Extreme Case Formulations.
