Répertoire de l'ethnologie française (1) : 1950-1970
Ce répertoire propose la première tentative de constitution d'une histoire de l'ethnologie française -entre 1950 et 1970 - dans ses multiples activités. Il présente les enseignements et leur contenu, les noms de ceux qui les ont suivis, et l'intitulé de leurs exposés, les différentes nominations, les publications d'ouvrages, la liste des congrès, conférences, colloques et communications, l'activité des sociétés savantes, les missions scientifiques, les équipes de recherche, les thèses de doctorat soutenues... Ce répertoire rassemble donc ce qui constitue la « matérialité effective » de l'histoire de l'ethnologie française.
Masters of Psalmody (bimo)
In Masters of Psalmody (bimo) Aurélie Névot analyses the religious, political and theoretical issues of a scriptural shamanism observed in southwestern China among the Yi-Sani. Her focus is on blood sacrifices and chants based on a secret and labile writing handled only by ritualists called bimo. Through ethnographic data, the author presents the still little known bimo metaphysics and unravels the complexity of the local text-based ritual system in which the continuity of each bimo lineage relies on the transmission of manuscripts whose writing relates to lineage blood. While illuminating the usages of this shamanistic tradition that is characterized by scriptural variability between patrilineages, Aurélie Névot highlights the radical changes it is undergoing by becoming a Chinese state tradition.
