Stylistic and rhetorical analysis of "Trop est toujours trop" ("Too much is always too much")

By Eblin Pascal Fobah

This article interrogates the political deliberation implemented by Soro Guillaume in his text "Trop est toujours trop" published in C te d'Ivoire in the print and online press on July 6, 7 and 11, 2017. Articulated around the Aristotelian triptych (ethos, pathos, logos) and inscribed in the descriptive approach of stylistics, argumentative rhetoric and discourse analysis, it presents the central role of the stakes of influence in Soro Guillaume's strategy. He constructs his positioning in the Ivorian political arena in relation to the subjects that circulate within it. The article describes the lineaments of this offensive strategy which, while building the credibility of its author, implicitly discredits his political opponents and their strategies that do not conform to universally accepted values.
