Abstract

 

Modern linguistic studies which delt with the concept of argumentation have varied according to their philosophical, logical and linguistic origins. Each of them made its way by using its own cognitive tools. But most of them belong to wider and more comprehensive science  called pragmatic.

Argumentation   in language which is the theme of our research according to Ducrot and Anxomber is a pure linguistic research because it is in language it makes saying follow each other and link in accurate way that they support one another.

What distinguishes Ducrot's theory of argumentation is that it is linked with many concepts which helped to explaining and framing this theory. These concepts include the concept of argumentative scale and the concept of argumentative orientation.

The argumentative scale depends on the principle of presenting argumentation gradually. It uses the criterion of strength and weakness which says that argument never undergo to the concept of truth and lying. But argumentative orientation is formed by imposing a kind of results as the only destination that the destinateur  can go through.

In  Ducrot's argumentation theory, we can see two main characteristics that can be summered up into two ideas: Stressing the argumentative function of the linguistic structure. Stressing  the instructive feature of discovers.
