La conception génétique de la linguistique comme dépassement possible de l’opposition entre linguistique diachronique et linguistique synchronique

Gustave Guillaume’s linguistic theory (“psychomécanique du langage”) postulates that the temporal component is at the heart of all the linguistic processes. That is why Guillaume did not stop repeating or, to say the least, suggesting strongly that there was a linguistics only diachronic. But if we spread the idea of diachrony to the fact that Guillaume calls “the transexpérimental moment” of the speech (“instant transexpérimental de discours”), how to conceptualize the temporality in the work in him? It is this question that tries to answer the present contribution.
