The contribution of John Rupert Firth to the history of linguistics and the rejection of the phoneme theory

La contribution de John Rupert Firth à l'histoire de la linguistique et le rejet de la théorie du phonème

Résumé

This article is meant to show how central Firth's particular position towards the phoneme is, in terms of constitution of the concept of phonaesthesia as a direct answer to the flaws he denounced in the phoneme. The rejection of the phoneme theory then led to the constitution of a whole and coherent theory of language now known under the name Contextual theory of meaning or even Firthian linguistics. It has eventually resulted in the creation of an independent school of thinking, the London School of Linguistics that has influenced many generations of British linguists.
