The Notion of Event In the Light of Discourse Analysis, Semantics of the Event and Tensive Semiotics

Abstract Within the textual/discursive studies in the 1980s, the concept of event was introduced in discourse analysis by Pêcheux. From the 2000s, other theoretical perspectives, such as the semantics of the event, which appropriates the AD definition in this own way, relates the enunciation as an event of historical-social nature to language (the system). A third line of discourse studies is the French semiotics, specifically its tensive semiotics, also develops another notion of event its own way: something unexpected and impactful. Thereunto, this paper seeks to bring together the commonalities about the concept of event from those theories, but it mainly pursues emphasize their conceptual and epistemological differences.摘要：20世纪80年代的文本/话语研究领域中，佩谢（Pêcheux）首次将“事件”（event）概念引入话语分析（discourse analysis）。自21世纪初以来，学界相继发展出其他理论视角：例如事件语义学，该理论以自身路径沿用了AD的定义，将具有历史社会属性的言说（enunciation）与语言系统（language (the system)）相关联。话语研究的第三条路径为法国符号学，具体而言是其张力符号学（tensive semiotics），该路径也以自身逻辑提出了独有的“事件”概念：即兼具突发性与影响力的事物。有鉴于此，本文旨在梳理上述理论中“事件”概念的共通之处，但其核心旨趣在于凸显这些理论在概念与认识论层面的差异。
