from one of its specific fields (this is the case, for instance, of the taxonomic
domains which serve to describe subjects relating to political culture, educational
culture, economic culture, etc.);
- finally, the third group is made up of taxonomic domains which serve to
describe subjects relating to what we call the arts and literature.

Let us now take a brief look at the taxonomic domains which illustrate the
conceptual term [Primary symbolic object]. Of the four specific conceptual domains
which form the ASW universe of discourse, the three domains [Language object],
[Text object] and [Discourse object] are particularly important for our research into
the analysis of audiovisual corpora:
- the domain [Language object] because it constitutes the domain of reference
for a large number of audiovisual texts analyzed during the ASW-HSS project (often
interviews and conferences with researchers devoted, for example, to one or more
families of languages, to a particular language, linguistic structure, sociolinguistic
phenomenon, etc.);
- the domains [Discourse object] and [Text object] because they refer to the
internal context peculiar to any thematization of a knowledge object (such as a
language or family of languages): the discourse as a “tool”, as a means for the author
to speak and communicate about an object of reference; the text as a tool for
recording the (author's) discourse on a given support.
