Abstract

L'A. examine la categories des parfaits en anglais et en espagnol. D'un point de vue synchronique, l'usage des hot news a une fonction discursive differente des autres utilisations du parfait: il met l'accent sur la signification et le caractere recent de l'evenement, mais pas sur ses resultats presents. D'un point de vue diachronique, l'usage des hot news parait plus tardivement que les autres utilisations du parfait
