Journal of Linguistics and Language Teaching (JLLT) Abstract (English) The role of Michel Bréal in the development of modern linguistics is judged very differently. Is Bréal the "inventor" of the word semantics (Touratier 2000), can his Essai de sémantique from 1897 even be considered as revolutionary (Tamba-Mecz 1988) or as the foundation of a new linguistic sub-discipline (Schmehl 2006)? Or did Bréal merely continue the tradition of historical-comparative linguistics (Brekle 1972) and produce hardly anything new (Coseriu 2000)? Irrespective of these assessments, the following article will examine to what extent a first approach towards linguistic pragmatics can be found in Bréal’s works. The focus will be on the reflections made on L'élément subjectif in his Essai de sémantique. At the same time, a chapter of this work will be presented in German translation for the first time. Abstract (Français) Le rôle de Michel Bréal dans le développement de la linguistique moderne est jugé de manière très différente. Bréal est-il "l'inventeur" du mot sémantique (Touratier 2000), son Essai de sémantique de 1897 peut-il même être considéré comme révolutionnaire (Tamba-Mecz 1988) ou comme le fondement d'une nouvelle sous-discipline linguistique (Schmehl 2006) ? Ou bien Bréal a-t-il simplement poursuivi la tradition de la linguistique comparative historique (Brekle 1972) et n'a-t-il pratiquement rien produit de nouveau (Coseriu 2000) ? Indépendamment de ces évaluations, cet article examinera la question de savoir dans quelle mesure on peut trouver les premières approches de la pragmatique linguistique dans l’oeuvre de Bréal. Pour ce faire, l'accent est mis sur les commentaires de L'élément subjectif de l'Essai de sémantique. En même temps, un chapitre de cet écrit est, pour la première fois, présenté en traduction allemande .
