Shift in speech and selection of point of view in metalepsis The heterogeneity of the definitions of metalepsis and its variable scope – from temporal metonymy of M. Bonhomme to narratological figure of G. Genette – leads us to reconsider this figure in a pragma-enunciative approach. We show that a shift in speech and a selection of point of view are added to the first criteria, of (chrono) logic reordering and indirect name. These two new criteria produce a shortcut both referential and enunciative. We then examine the nature of this para-informative shortcut and dynamic changes of points of view on the same object. The study of the stage setting of the points of view and discursive strategies of the main enunciator allows to show pragmatic values of metalepsis.
