L’ “accident” peut consister à piéger le mot titre dans son carcan, dans sa fonction pragmatique de titre. Ainsi Verlaine. Il pare volontiers un sonnet d’un titre qui n’a rien à voir avec la suite (Colloque sentimental ou En patinant : aucun patineur ne paraît). Ainsi Jules Laforgue, duquel Marcel Duchamp se réclame pour lui emprunter ce genre de distorsion, cette méprise dans la façon de titrer. On observe que la fonction pragmatique de titre, cet usage social, est bien maintenue. Fontaine (1917) est l’exemple mirifique.
