Orpaillage et grammaire. La prédication adverbiale focalisante en néo-égyptien

Abstract

Cet article examine une particularité grammaticale d’une légende du « Papyrus des Mines d’Or » de Turin. L’analyse du passage montre que la construction jw + PRÉDICATION ADVERBIALE constitue un exemple précoce de prédication adverbiale indépendante à fonction focalisante. Elle témoigne vraisemblablement d’une étape initiale dans le processus complexe de grammaticalisation qui aboutira au Présent II du copte (et à ses usages auto-focaux). L’enquête met ainsi en lumière un paradigme émergent dans la syntaxe néo-égyptienne et suggère que les interrogatives en jn jw ont pu constituer un environnement propice à la réanalyse focalisante du morphème de substantivation jw. Au-delà des exemples cités, ces observations ouvrent la voie à une relecture systématique des prédications adverbiales introduite par jw dans le corpus ramesside et invite à réévaluer les interactions entre substantivisation et focalisation dans l’évolution de l’Égyptien de la Seconde Phase.

This article examines a grammatical feature found in one of the captions of the Turin “Goldmine Papyrus.” The analysis shows that the construction jw + ADVERBIAL PREDICATION represents an early instance of a focalizing adverbial predication. It likely constitutes an initial stage in the grammaticalization process that ultimately led to the Coptic Present II (and its auto-focal uses). The study highlights the emergence of a focalizing paradigm within Late Egyptian syntax and suggests that jn jw interrogatives may have provided a favourable environment for the focalizing reanalysis of the substantivizing morpheme jw. Beyond the specific case discussed, these findings call for a systematic reassessment of adverbial predications introduced by jw in the Ramesside corpus and invite a re-evaluation of the interplay between substantivization and focalization in the development of Later Egyptian.
