Suivant le fil conducteur sous-jacent à la pensée de Jean Baudrillard, la présente recherche s’attache à explorer les premiers travaux de l’auteur afin de saisir sa conception de la nature du langage, du signe et du sens. Notre démarche s’inscrit dans une tentative de rendre compte à la fois des changements de paradigmes théoriques et d’explorer la vision du langage de Baudrillard dans le contexte des sciences humaines françaises. La théorie du langage de Baudrillard repose sur une double spirale à deux chaines que sont la sémiotique et le symbolique. Ces deux mouvements s’opposent au même objet critique qu’est le sens figé et passent, pour ce faire, par des approches largement diversifiées, voire contradictoires. La dimension symbolique, qui assure le vide ou le néant du sens, la consommation de la valeur ainsi que l’anéantissement du code, s’oppose ainsi à la dimension sémiotique dont l’objet est précisément orienté sur l’indétermination et les incertitudes du sens, sur la production de la valeur ainsi que sur l’hégémonie du code. La complexification de ces postulats au sein de la double spirale de Baudrillard est incontestable dans le champ des sciences humaines françaises. C'est dans l’espace entre le sémiotique et le symbolique – la double spirale visant à subvertir et à déconstruire la pensée moderne – que Baudrillard confère au symbolique le pouvoir mystérieux de renier les civilisations modernes, son engagement envers le statut originel du langage accompagné du rejet de la signification et de la communication suscitant une vision tant radicale qu’impossible. / Jean Baudrillard is regarded as one of the most important figures in contemporary French thought. His theoretical studies and cultural perspectives provide important insights into academic subjects. This dissertation probes Baudrillard’s early works to explore his view on language within the context of French Human Science. Baudrillard’s discussion about consumer objects, his critique of Semiology, his concept of simulation, and his debate over poetic language are closely examined to clarify the theoretical transitions and conflicts of his insights into the nature of language, sign and meaning.Baudrillard’s theorizing of language presents a ‘double spiral’ consisting of two chains: the semiotic and the symbolic. A thorough examination of such a spiral is the foundation for interpreting his view on language.The semiotic chain of the double spiral embodies sign and code. Baudrillard begins with the structuralist approach to the meaning of consumer goods, proceeding with a post-structuralist shift towards the critique of Semiology and the theory of simulation. These moves give insights into language and sign, which privilege the signifier as the principle of circulation and game. Baudrillard illustrates how the structure of the sign is dismantled, arguing that what is signified is merely an effect determined by the primacy of the signifier. In essence the signified is a structural play of the signifier under the manipulation of code.The symbolic chain is Baudrillard’s deepening investigation of primitive cultures as cultures of the symbolic exchange, to the discipline of which converge Mauss’s notion of gift, Bataille’s notion of expenditure and Saussure’s anagrams. Baudrillard claims that the poetic, as the terrain of the symbolic exchange in language, has brought out the antagonistic character of a non-expressive language, and has decentered the primacy of the signifier and the dominancy of code. The signifier in the poetic is dismembered into scattered phonemes, and the doubling up of phoneme and counter-phoneme is conceived as a cyclical cancellation. For Baudrillard, the exact poetic operation is equivalent to the signifier’s death and annihilation, a force proper to the destruction of the final signified or the signified in process, and proper to the extermination of code. Interpreted as a pure expenditure of language and a break with the logic of production, the poetic resolves the signifier, the distinction between the signifier and the signified, and accordingly the mechanism of language activity.Baudrillard’s double spiral, the coexistence and contest between these two chains, aims to reject the definite meaning and seeks to dismantle the structure of the sign and to explode all metaphysical binary oppositions. In spite of spiraling around the same critical object, the semiotic and the symbolic are showing widely divergent approaches. The semiotic chain implodes the unity of the signifier and the signified in the structural play of the signifier. The symbolic puts an end to the structure of the sign and thereby that of code, operating in a realm beyond all distinctions assigned by code. According to Baudrillard, the symbolic stands for the void or nothingness of meaning, the consumption of value and the extermination of code, as an antagonist force against the indetermination or incertitude of meaning, the production of value and the domination of code.There are inevitably positions of a more complex pattern that Baudrillard’s double spiral presents in the field of language studies in French Human Science. Baudrillard adhered to certain features and suppositions of the semiological tradition even as he struggled against it in the institutional settings of structural interpretation. / 鲍德里亚是法国思想界重要的标杆性人物之一，其理论研究和文化视角对当代社会理论和文化研究产生了广泛而深远的影响。本文试图厘清鲍德里亚思想语言维度的双重线索，从他对消费品的探讨、对符号学的批判、对拟真的研究以及对诗学语言的极端推崇来考察其对待语言符号以及意义问题的观点和立场转变，并阐释这些转变的理论根基和内在承接关系，以期在法国人文科学语境下对其思想的语言维度作出深入探索。从坚持意义结构观的消费品符号学到批判符号学的拟真理论，再转向推崇象征性交换的诗学研究，鲍德里亚思想的语言维度呈现出双链螺旋的趋势——符号化和象征性。就符号化螺旋而言，鲍德里亚思想的基点在于符号和符码，他从借鉴现代符号学思想起步，对物品和消费社会进行结构分析，然后以向后结构主义的转变来完成对符号学的批判和拟真理论的建构，这反映出他对现实社会符号、符码以及语言游戏的深度思考。语言的符号化螺旋凸显了能指优势和能指的结构游戏：能指和所指完全断裂，由二者构成的符号不再是一个稳固确定的结构；能指对于游离的所指来说具有压倒性的优势地位，所指意义是符码结构操作下的能指效果和能指游戏；作为符号联结的规则系统，符码结构是构造和生产意义的母体。就象征性螺旋而言，鲍德里亚把莫斯和巴塔耶对原始社会曾经存在的象征性交换方式奉为革命性手段，同时把索绪尔的易位书写笔记融入其中，寄希望于象征性交换方式对抗符号和符码操控下各种权力和价值的积累、生产和再生产。语言的象征性螺旋锁定在诗学语言对能指优势和符码霸权的去除：诗学语言通过易位书写方式把语词分解成零散的能指碎片，通过配对方式对这些能指进行重复，音素和音素的副本（即反音素）之间相互抵消，这种能指返回自身并作用于自身的象征性交换相当于能指的死亡和毁灭。能指的耗费相当于所指的耗费，诗学语言在摧毁能指的同时也摧毁了终极的先验所指以及过程中延异的所指。象征性交换消解了能指，消解了能指和所指的区分，同时也消解了这种区分对立背后的语言活动机制——操控意义生产和再生产的符码。双链螺旋语言研究形成了既共生又对抗的纠缠关系，其核心目标是否定意义确定论，其直接的批判对象是结构主义符号学的符号结构，而深层的批判对象则是形而上学赖以依存的二元对立思维模式。尽管双链螺旋围绕着共同的批判根基而盘旋上升，但不可否认双链螺旋在意义问题上呈现出大相径庭的批判进路。在拆解结构问题上，符号化螺旋是在语言符号学内部批判意义生产的结构，让能指和所指的符号二元结构内爆，突出由符码结构主导的能指游戏；而象征性螺旋则是在语言符号学外部超越意义生产的结构，诗学的象征性交换不仅要驱逐符号结构甚至要把等级二元的根基——符码结构也彻底终结。鲍德里亚视象征性螺旋为消灭能指的物质性和符号学符码规律的革命手段，以意义的空无、价值的耗费和符码的根除来对抗符号化螺旋之意义的不确定、价值的生产和符码的霸权。双链螺旋在法国当代人文科学语言研究的大背景下呈现出微妙的两面性。鲍德里亚虽然批判了结构主义符号学的形而上学但不可否认他还是坚守了结构主义的某些预设和准则；他似乎想靠近后结构主义阵营来反对结构主义，但是又想与后结构主义保持距离凸显个性，这种微妙的态度决定了他的语言研究游走于符号化和象征性之间。鲍德里亚一方面承认意义产生于语言游戏，尤其依赖于符号与符号之间的符码关系结构；另一方面，他孜孜不倦地试图摆脱符号和符码的控制，让语言回到非表意的声音或线条的原初状态，拒绝所有言说和意义。尽管双链螺旋顺应了西方人文科学语境中推翻意义、理性和主体等先验中心的大趋势，但是鲍德里亚在象征性螺旋中所秉持的观点极大地暴露了其思想的极端性和消极性，把象征性交换的耗费抬高为否定一切社会历史文明进步的超然力量，让已经具有了意指和交流功能的语言符号回复到非表意的混沌状态，不足以成为解决现实问题的办法。
