description This chapter ties in narratological, stylistic, and linguistic insights from the author’s research and from the study of français oral représenté to offer a global approach to the macro- and micro-grammar(s) of speech and thought presentation (S&TP), highlighting their intra- and intertextual variation, i.e. the fact that different grammars can compete within the same text and across textual genres. The macro-grammar(s) of S&TP are explored in terms of the form and functions of reported discourses and of their framing (i.e. insertion) within the texts, while the micro-grammar(s) are investigated in terms of stable characteristics linked to the interactional quality of oral discourse and in terms of the spoken language’s aptitude for linguistic innovation. The examples used here are mostly taken from two digital editions of the Histoire ancienne jusqu’à César, an early thirteenth-century prose text, in a database recently developed by the ERC-funded project ‘The Values of French’.
