Cette thèse analyse le profil des apprenants adultes avancés de deux langues étrangères, le français et l’italien, dont l’apprentissage se fait en milieu institutionnel, dans le cadre du lycée (Bartning, 1997). L’étude consiste à dégager les procédures d’organisation de l’information textuelle, lors de la production d’un récit oral, et s’insère dans un cadre de recherche sur la production verbale et le récit, en particulier Levelt (1989) et Klein & Von Stutterheim (2002). Tout locuteur doit gérer un certain nombre de procès pour mener à bien une tâche communicative. D’abord, il sélectionne l’information qu’il veut transmettre. Ensuite, il organise cette information en énoncé, réalisant ce qui s’appelle linéarisation des contenus. Cette information se développe d’énoncé en énoncé dans une suite cohérente et cohésive, de façon à ce qu’elle soit compréhensible aux interlocuteurs, dont les attentes et les connaissances sont aussi évaluées par le locuteur, lors de sa production. Telles sont les compétences textuelles que cette étude analyse, relativement à l’acquisition et à la maîtrise des processus de connexion syntaxique, en particulier les connecteurs. Pour ce faire, un corpus d’apprenants a été bâti, se composant de récits de lycéens italophones apprenants de français LE ainsi que francophones apprenants d’italien LE. La production de récits oraux a été sollicitée à partir d’un support vidéo, « Quest ». Après l’avoir visionné, les apprenants en ont fait deux restitutions : immédiate et différée, avec un délai de sept jours environ. Cela nous a permis, en outre, de tester les effets de la remémoration d’histoires sur la connexité textuelle, selon les hypothèses formulées par la psychologie cognitive, concernant l’existence d’un schéma de récit (Mandler & Johnson, 1977 ; Stein & Glenn, 1979). Les résultats obtenus confirment l’existence d’une divergence entre les productions des apprenants et des natifs, en termes de moyens syntaxiques employés et de répertoire de connecteurs mis en œuvre, suivant les relations exprimées. Il est possible de parler de « traitement prototypique » de la tâche verbale demandée (Watorek, 1996), en particulier pour le groupe d’apprenants italophones de français LE. Les apprenants font preuve d’une structuration de l’information visant à répondre de façon essentielle à la « quaestio » posée par le texte. De plus, l’analyse de la remémoration a permis de vérifier le recours à un schéma, lors de la structuration d’un récit, qui aboutit à la réactivation des seules informations retenues essentielles au bon déroulement de l’histoire, sans que cela entraîne un véritable ajout de connexions, en termes de connecteurs employés, sauf pour l’expression de la causalité, qui est plus fréquente en restitution différée chez tous les groupes analysés. / This thesis analyses the profile of advanced learners of French and Italian as foreign languages within the institutional environment of the high school (Bartning, 1997). The study consists in an analysis of the procedures according to which textual information is organised during the production of an oral narrative, and fits into a framework of research on verbal production (Levelt, 1989; Klein & Von Stutterheim, 2002). A speaker must do several things in the performance of a communicative task. First, he selects the information he wants to impart. Then, he organizes this information, resulting in what is called the linearization of the content. This information is then formulated into language clause by clause, producing a coherent and cohesive text that it is understandable to the interlocutors. This study will examine the textual skills involved in these processes in relation to the acquisition of the means for syntactic cohesion, in particular competence with connectors. To analyse these skills, a corpus of learners was assembled, consisting of Italian-speaking high school students learning French, and their French-speaking, Italian-learning counterparts. Oral responses to a video, « Quest », were elicited. The subjects were asked to give their recollections of the video immediately after viewing and again after approximately seven days. This allowed certain hypotheses in cognitive psychology concerning the existence of a story schema and the relationship between time passed and the cohesion of recollections (Mandler & Johnson, 1977; Stein and Glenn, 1979) to be tested. The results confirm the existence of a difference between the productions of learners and those of native speakers, in respect of employed syntactical means and the repertoire of connectors for certain semantic relations. It is possible to speak about the « traitement prototypique » (Watorek, 1996) of the verbal task, especially for the group of Italian-speaking learners of French. The learners structure the information to give a direct answer to the « quaestio » asked by the text. Furthermore, we noticed that the difference between learners and native speakers is rather small, especially as regards the repertoire of connectors employed and the syntactical structures in which they appear. We may therefore conclude that even the native speakers operate employ only those means strictly necessary to settle the task which they are set. Furthermore, analysis of the recollections verified that there is an appeal to a schema which reactivates only the essential information during the ideal progress of a recollection but which does not result in an increase in the number of connectors used. / Questa tesi analizza il profilo degli apprendenti adulti avanzati del francese e dell’italiano, come lingue straniere, apprese in ambito istituzionale (Bartning, 1997). Lo studio permette di rendere conto delle modalità di organizzazione dell’informazione testuale, in un testo narrativo orale, e si inserisce in un filone di ricerca sulla produzione verbale e la narrazione (Levelt, 1989 ; Klein & Von Stutterheim, 2002). Per portare a termine un determinato compito comunicativo, ogni locutore deve far fronte a un certo numero di attività. Innanzitutto, deve selezionare l’informazione da trasmettere e organizzarla in enunciati, realizzando ciò che si definisce linearizzazione dei contenuti. Tale informazione si sviluppa attraverso gli enunciati, realizzando in tal modo la coerenza e la coesione del discorso, necessarie per la sua comprensione da parte dell’interlocutore. Questa ricerca analizza tali competenze testuali, soprattutto in merito alla realizzazione della coesione attraverso l’uso di connettori. A questo scopo, è stato creato un corpus di apprendenti italofoni di francese L2 e francofoni di italiano L2. Le narrazioni orali sono state elicitate a partire da un supporto video, « Quest ». Dopo averlo visionato, gli apprendenti ne hanno prodotto due restituzioni : immediata e differita di sette giorni circa. Questo ha permesso di testare gli effetti della memoria sulla coesione testuale nella ricostruzione di una storia, secondo le ipotesi formulate dalla psicologia cognitiva sull’esistenza di uno schema, che guidi il trattamento del testo (Mandler & Johnson, 1977 ; Stein & Glenn, 1979). I risultati ottenuti confermano la differenza esistente tra le produzioni degli apprendenti e dei nativi, relativamente ai mezzi sintattici e al repertorio di connettori usati, secondo le relazioni semantiche che questi ultimi esprimono. È possibile parlare di « traitement prorotypique » del compito verbale richiesto (Watorek, 1996), in particolare per il gruppo di apprendenti italofoni di francese L2. Gli apprendenti strutturano l’informazione in maniera essenziale, rispondendo alla « quaestio » alla base del testo. Inoltre, l’analisi della memoria ha permesso di confermare l’esistenza di uno schema per il trattamento di un testo narrativo, che permette di riattivare solo le informazioni essenziali per lo sviluppo della storia, senza che questo comporti un reale aumento dei connettori usati, eccetto che per l’espressione delle relazioni causali, in aumento in restituzione differita per tutti i gruppi del corpus.

This thesis is an examination of the circulation networks and the patterns of collection of Italian printed books in France in the sixteenth century. Although the cultural relations between the Italian and French territory have been studied, a systematic survey to assess the impact of books on the shaping of the French Renaissance has never been attempted. The first section of this study examines the trade routes and networks which facilitated the circulation of Italian printed books across the French territory. Because of the nature of the French early modern book trade, focused primarily on two major centres (Paris and Lyon), a geographical division has been adopted in investigating this phenomenon. Chapter one explores the trade networks existing in sixteenth-century Lyon, from the powerful Compagnie des Libraires to the activity of the libraires italianisants in the second half of the century. Chapter two examines the importance of Italian editions in Paris. Chapter three is devoted to the circulation of Italian books in the provinces and the impact of large regional centres and trade routes on the availability of books locally. Chapter four investigates private networks and their importance in making specific texts available to French readers. The second section of this study investigates the status and importance of Italian printed books within French Renaissance libraries. Chapter five looks into the development of the French Royal library and the role played by Italian items in defining its identity as an institution. Chapter six examines the presence of Italian books in French aristocratic and courtly collections. Chapter seven is devoted to the libraries of the French literary milieu, analysing the extent to which Italian books were cherished as literary exemplars, particularly with regard to vernacular texts. Chapter eight examines the presence of Italian books in professional collections, with particular attention here given to texts in Latin and other scholarly languages imported from Italy. The conclusion draws all of these strands together, looking at the specific role played by Italian culture, through the printed book, on the development of the French Renaissance. A catalogue of about 2,400 Italian printed books with early modern French provenance is included as an appendix volume. This data provides the evidential basis for this study.

Andrea Zanzotto (Pieve di Soligo 1921- Conegliano 2011), poète italien parmi les plus marquants du XXe siècle, a privilégié, depuis sa jeunesse, la culture et la langue française. Notre travail met en évidence, à partir de sa poésie, des écrits critiques, de ses traductions et de ses nombreuses interviews, le lien, qu’il a tissé pendant plus de soixante-dix ans, avec la poésie transalpine moderne. Toutefois, c’est seulement à partir des dernières années que la critique littéraire a développé des études comparatives sur l’influence de la poésie étrangère, en particulière française, sur son œuvre. Sa prédilection littéraire commence par Rimbaud, passe à travers le Surréalisme (Éluard), et s’arrête sur certains auteurs appelés « hérétiques » par rapport au mouvement de Breton (Michel Leiris, Antonin Artaud), ou alors sur des auteurs très polémiques (comme Henri Michaux ou Blaise Cendrars avec son poème Pâques à New York) aux quels on a dédié un approfondissement. En ce parcours Zanzotto croise, bien qu’avec moins d’entrain, les contemporains André Frénaud, Alain Borne, Edmond Jabès, Jean Tardieu, Michel Deguy, Yves Bonnefoy, et René Char. Notre thèse, en s’appuyant sur l’examen des textes et sur l’analyse des traductions et des documents inédits, d’une part rends compte du caractère précurseur de Zanzotto pour ce qui concerne la connaissance de certains auteurs et les raisons de son intérêt pour le courant « hérétique » du Surréalisme. D’autre part, ce travail explique l’intersection de sa recherche littéraire, d’un point de vue thématique et linguistique, avec la poésie française et met en évidence le rendu poétique des expressions littéraires et existentielles de l’outrance et de l’absolu d’origine française. / Andrea Zanzotto (Pieve di Soligo, 1921 – Conegliano, 2011), one of the most outstanding poets of the 20th century, showed from an early age a huge interest towards the French linguistic and cultural heritage, above the others. Our thesis highlights how well present his strong relationship with modern French poetry is, testified by his own critical essays, translations and public statements; a connection bound to last for almost seventy years. Only recently the critics have started a comparative approach to the study of the influence of foreign poetry, and French poetry in particular, upon his œuvre. The literary lineage that Zanzotto follows starts with Rimbaud, crosses Surrealism (Eluard ) and then lingers upon a number of authors defined either as heterodox (Michel Leiris, Antonin Artaud,) or extremely critical (Henri Michaux, and Blaise Cendrars, the latter with his short poem titled Pâques à New York, herewith analysed) towards Breton’s movement. Zanzotto also deals with his contemporaries, although with minor depth (André Frénaud, Alain Borne, Edmond Jabès, Jean Tardieu, Michel Deguy, Yves Bonnefoy, René Char). The present research, backed up by textual comparison and the analysis of unpublished translations and documents, focuses on the pioneering features of Zanzotto’s knowledge of all these French authors compared to the subsequent Italian literature, and the reasons behind his ties with the “heretic” current of Surrealism. At the same time, our work explains the intersection, from the linguistic and thematic point of view, with French poetry and shows the poetic outcome of the literary and existential expressions of the Absolute and all-out of French origin.

La tesi è divisa in tre parti: la prima parte offre un panorama delle principali teorie della valenza sviluppate in Francia e in Italia, con particolare attenzione allo statuto sintattico dei complementi preposizionali (argomenti o aggiuntivi); la seconda parte presenta lo studio contrastivo di 103 verbi francesi tratti dal "Dictionnaire de la Complémentation Verbale" di Salkoff-Valli (in preparazione); la terza parte presenta lo studio contrastivo di due gruppi preposizionali francesi di particolare interesse traduttivo: "de N" con valore di causa e "contre N". / This Thesis is divided into three parts : the first one gives an overview of the main valency theories, which have been developed in France and Italy, particularly paying attention to the problem of prepositional complements ambiguity (objects or modifiers of the verb) ; second part proposes a contrastive study of 103 French verbs, taken from Dictionnaire de la Complémentation verbale of Salkoff-Valli (in progress); third part proposes a contrastive study of two French prepositional phrases "de N" indicating a cause, and "contre N", object or specific modifier of the verb , very interesting topic under the point of view of the translation into Italian.
