Summary: | This article aims at questioning the applicability of enunciative postures defined by Rabatel, analyzing a corpus of dialogical utterances (detournements) written on the walls of two occupied/reclaimed faculties in may-june 1968 in Paris, France. Following Rabatel, detournements can be analyzed as confronted points of view. I first illustrate how this analysis works and can be insightful to deal with my corpus, but still addresses issues which make me suggest that the approach of Rabatel can only be applied to such a corpus if one specifies what the object taken into account stands for. I then define the parameters which the dialogical confrontation between the original utterance and its detournement can be based on. The article thus illustrates how the analysis of dialogism in detournements implies to both dissociate and articulate semantical, enunciative, pragmatical and sociodiscursive levels.
