De l’inachèvement des énoncés à la construction du sens. La disqualification par l’interruption
From Non-Completion of Statements to Construction of Meaning. The Disqualification by Interruption

Summary/Abstract: This research is a discourse analysis based on the conversational and interactional analysis of a televised political debate. Our objective is to study the correlation between the disqualification of the opponent by interrupting him/her, on the one hand, and the polemical discourse and argumentation, on the other. The selected corpus is a debate between two politicians, Jean-Luc Mélenchon and Marine Le Pen. All the interruptions will be listed and each interruption will be studied according to its nature, its type and the word or phrase preceding it. Then, interruptions will be studied from the point of view of their aim and of the overall strategy they are part of. Future studies could focus on the mimics and gestures used in this kind of debate and their role in the disqualification of the interlocutor.
