ABSTRACTThis paper discusses the syntax and semantics of the construction Ce fripon de valet (This rascal of a servant) using data both from standard and québécois French. This construction is analyzed as having a syntactical status similar to that of preposed complements (Un gentil valet, A nice servant). The evaluative value of the construction depends on the nature of N1 or that of the determiner; the equative relationship between the N is analyzed in terms of coreference.
