QUEZADA MACCHIAVELLO, Óscar Alfredo. Efficiency and Effectiveness of the Tensive Hypothesis. Tóp. Sem [online]. 2021, n.46, pp.118-134.  Epub Aug 23, 2021. ISSN 2594-0619.

This essay studies a central aspect of Claude Zilberberg’s theoretical deployment, oriented to the elaboration of a tensive grammar; a theory that takes up again in its core the postulates of A. J. Greimas and that critically returns to them generating dialogues with great philosophers, linguists and artists. At the same time, he also exposes how through his communications with his friend and translator into Spanish, Desiderio Blanco López, he was shaping his thought.

It is therefore a question of elaborating a review of the most outstanding guidelines in the architecture of tensive semiotics. In this endeavor, the efficiency and effectiveness of a model that continues to prove its suitability for analysis and interpretation not only of poetic texts is evident.

Keywords : tensive semiotics; efficiency and effectiveness; valences and values.
