Perspectives comparées franco-roumaines a partir d’un extrait de La deffence et illustration de la langue francoyse de J. du Bellay
Comparative Franco-Romanian Perspectives Based on an Extract from Deffence Et Illustration De La Langue Francoyse By J. du Bellay

Summary/Abstract: The adaptation of the society to the surrounding world requires the mobilization of means which maintain its specificity and guarantee its access to novelties. French – like Romanian – illustrates this problem, by the superposition of different linguistic layers, by internal and external lexical enrichment, as well as, in the current period, by the challenge of the globalization of connected exchanges. This intervention aims to reflect, in the humanist tradition, on the place of French in this “new world”. This communication addresses the methods of transmission of knowledge from on Romance language over time, with tools that vary according to the speaker. To do this, it relies on a fundamental facsimile and digitized document of the French language, confronted with its available standardized modern variant. A transliteration – carried out by us, for scientific purposes – reveals graphic specificities of Middle French and this common framework around which French is articulated. The Romanian translation – which we produced for the purpose of this research – exemplifies the difficulties associated with the interpretation of old documents and the transposition into Romanian.
