Resumen de Regards dialectométriques sur les donées de "l'Atlas linguistique" de la France (ALF): relations quantitaves et structures de profondeur
This paper describes, with the help of geolinguistic data drawn from the linguistic Atlas of France by Jules Gilliéron and Edmond Edmont (ALF), the theoretical and methodological approach and the typodiagnostic possibilities of modern dialectometry (DM), whose central aim is to discover the underlying diatopic structures that geolinguists are normally not able to observe directly. The paper has 5 black-and-white figures and 24 full-page colour maps, and it provides a detailed introduction to the following procedures in dialectometry: interpointDM (measuring distances between points), similarity DM (measuring the similarities between the all the ALF points taken into account), characteristic-parameter DM, and dendrographic DM. The result is a very detailed overview of the genesis and current structure of the Gallo-Romance area as it appears from cross-linking the 638 survey points and the transcriptions identified in the 626 plates of the ALF taken into account.
