| Abstract | The Canadian Prime Minister opens each session of the Ottawa federal parliament with a speech of the "throne". From the origin of these institutions (1867), there are 128 speeches and a total of 260,836 words. The automatic segmentation of the corpus highlights two major turning points defining three periods that are characterized by their own topics and by their own vocabularies. The first turning point occurs at the beginning of the Second World War when the central government extended considerably, and the second one occurred in 1968 with the arrival in power of Trudeau who wants to build a nation and a strong federal government. Within these three main periods, there are several important events which also delimit some sequences. Thus, lexicometry provides some useful tools for the periodization of political history. Resume Le Premier ministre canadien ouvre chaque session du parlement d’Ottawa par un discours du "trone" soit, depuis l’origine de ces institutions (1867), 128 discours comportant 260 836 mots. La segmentation automatique de ce corpus met en lumiere deux tournants majeurs delimitant trois periodes dont les themes propres sont determines grâce a leurs vocabulaires caracteristiques. Le premier tournant correspond a la seconde guerre mondiale et a l’apresguerre ou les activites du gouvernement central s’etendent considerablement ; le deuxieme survient en 1968 avec l’arrivee au pouvoir de Trudeau qui veut bâtir une nation canadienne et un pouvoir federal fort. Au sein de ces trois periodes principales, on distingue plusieurs episodes secondaires importants dont on etablit egalement les vocabulaires caracteristiques. Ainsi, la lexicometrie fournit des outils interessants pour la periodisation de l’histoire politique. |
