You have to attend a speech to see its capacity to provide a corpus for multifaceted studies in the humanities and social sciences. Inaugural speeches are an opportunity to collect lexical, syntactic and stylistic elements, as they deal with so many different themes. Regardless of how the French and Congolese perceive their statesmen Emmanuel Macron and F lix-Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo, the latter are invited, alongside other reader-scientists around the world, to discover in the present work admirable illustrations of the notions of linguistic pragmatics. It deals with enunciation, speech acts and conversational maxims. A comparative approach makes for even more attractive reading.
