Semiotica, 2016

In semiotics, a commercial transaction is a symmetrical tranfer of equi-valent objects, but the successoral transmission, that is a major form of goods circulation within social space, has not been described. We propose to describe it in the narrative tradition laid down by Greimas. The domain has been studied by anthropologists, sociologists, jurists and historians. The semiotic point of view is able to provide a unified perspective, that renders comparable data that would seem heterogeneous as long as they have been attributed to distinct disciplines. The analysis of verbal expressions in french and arabic languages extolls the notions of two successive subjects and a transmitted object, while greek language focuses on the notions of partaking and law. The examination of non verbal processes exacts a syntactic model that makes the difference between an anterior subject and an ulterior subject, concatenated into linear chains by genealogic discourse that rearticulates the world between the dead and the living. Through funerary practices, the ulteriors transform materially and symbolically the anteriors, obtaining a change of these after their death, placing them into the position of state subjects, not of action subjects. Four narrative programs have been recognized, succession being the result of their combination. The social Destinator determins lineage and family, as he determins what is devolved and the forms of partaking. The anterior subject is subject only because he has been in conjunction with the inheritance as valued object: before he became an anterior subject, he has been an ulterior subject. Inheritance, as a valued object, transits between an anterior subject and an ulterior subject. Transit forms reveal the conditional and modal character of the transiting object. The ulterior subject is an actant that decomposes into various actors, the transmission places him first into a contractual position, to which succeeds a polemical situation resulting from the partitive character of the inheriting actant.
