Condé, Carole; Beveridge, Karl
Some people accuse us of sloganizing. Why can’t it be more ‘aesthetic’? But, again, it doesn’t matter what we say, but how we say it. Language has become yet another commodity, an obsession with style. Certains nous accusent de faire des slogans. Pourquoi ne pas être plus « esthétique »? Mais là encore, ce n'st pas ce que nous disons qui compte, mais la manière nous le disons. Le langage est devenu une marchandise de plus, une obsession du style.
