The symbolic nature of taboo is examined as a container that differentiates developmental stages between the social values order/disorder through a ritual, liminal process of separating order as clean/blessed/safety and disorder as polluted/disassociated/risky. Unconscious/conscious taboos embody that perilous journey across margins in rites of passage and their emotional value and intensity in the form of symptomology varies cross‐culturally. Two clinical cases are presented to illustrate the influence of taboo on obsessive compulsions and anorexia nervosa. Particular attention is given as to whether dirt as disorder/rubbish can be recycled at the margins between safety and risk and value redistributed to the intrapsychic and psychosocial anomalous bits and pieces that are discarded as rubbish.

Judith is a wealthy, pious, celibate, domestic(ated) widow both at the beginning of the story and at its conclusion. Comprising the central section, her peregrinations to Holofernes' tent (Jdt 10:1–13:20) and the Jerusalem temple (Jdt 15:8–16:21) serve as an "interlude." Her story (chs. 8–16) is thus structured as a rite de passage , opening and ending in two stable states that enclose a liminal core. This article traces the role her two journeys play in the narrative, comparison of the topographical details, encounters with foreigners, and gender roles, suggesting that Judith's first voyage marks her separation from her community and position within it, the second her reintegration and restoration to her original status.

This paper considers the way the outbreak of coronavirus and the subsequent lockdown has egregiously impeded the Hindu death ceremonies and mourning rituals in India. It makes a comparative analysis of how Hindu death rituals get renegotiated, modified and reinterpreted across two vastly different regions of India, both of which have their local customs. Whilst death rituals in India are contingent on the deceased's caste, community, class, gender and age, the impediment to the major death rituals creates a central conundrum for all mourners. It results from the substitution of 'sacred' ritual guidelines with new 'profane' ones for the 'disposal' of deceased COVID-19 patients. Departure from many significant pre-liminal rites, specific transition rites, and post-liminal rites has eschatological, ritual and cultural ramifications. The inability to grieve in unison during a Shraddh ceremony denies mourners any scope to quell distressing feelings about mortality which serves as a source of consolation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

8. Un appel à volontaires en contexte de pandémie de Covid-19 en école de médecine. Rite de passage pour des étudiants de médecine de deuxième année.

- Abstract
Context and background: During the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, second-year medical students were asked to help overwhelmed health services. Although little or no training at this stage, most have signed up after a decision-making process. Objective: To illuminate the implicit processes underlying the students' decision to respond to the call for volunteering. Methods: Six interviews were conducted with a sample of second-year students from a French medical school according to the explicitation interview principles. The verbatim were analyzed in relation to the conceptual framework developed by the ethnologist and folklorist van Gennep concerning the "rites of passage". Results: The analysis reveals that the call for volunteers elicited reactions from the students in relation to the construction of their identity as (future) physicians. As with the processes involved in the rites of passage, it emphasizes the break with the previous environment (family, friends), the importance of role models and the confraternity that are already at work. Although this is an exploratory study, based on a particular event and a small sample, our observations are in line with those of other more significant studies, but relating to a more advanced phase of the training of future doctors.

This article is devoted to the symbolic representation of the pendulum movement, such as rocking, swaying and swinging. The research covered Polish and East Slavic folklore, ethnographic and linguistic material. The analysis aims to reach the conceptual basis of pendulum motion developed from the physical experience of movement and related events such as magical practices and rituals. To interpret the material, pre-linguistic conceptual schemas and narrative study, it uses tools to reconstruct the procedures of rites de passage. Examining the contexts and associations accompanying the magical activities of pendulum motion led to the disclosure of archaic beliefs that go back to the myth of creation. The broad spectrum of issues related to the performative power of rocking, swaying and swinging allowed us to present an embodied conceptualisation of the primary movement experience as the universal model of cosmic rhythms.

Rites are a collection of actions and speeches held in a culture and community and believe that existence of the effective presence of supernatural beings can influence them in particular ways. A number of them are collective rituals, which votive charities are from this group. A significant portion of them are performed only by women and only in the presence of women. In this article, we have attempted to answer the question of how can the votive charities in Iran be regarded as a rites de passage? According to the results of the survey, these small communities, though not defined by Arnold Van Gennep, are not fully indicative of rites de passage stages; but with the more developed Turner's perspective, the components of these rituals can show Turner's stages. The present research is based on recognition of a part of Iranian women rituals that have been so far less scientifically explored, and are usually only referred to as folk customs. Therefore, a number of votive charity in five regions, have been studied by qualitative method using rites de passage theory based on the analysis of ritual components according to the nature of the passage stages. It can be said that there have been examples of communities and liminality, as well as the forms of the sacrament transmission.

In this reflection we unpack students' first fieldwork experiences and how this parallels a rite de passage. We do so in two domains: (1) students' first fieldwork with a focus on entering the field, staying in the field, and researcher identity; and (2) the impact of fieldwork experiences on students' professional skills. Two struggles are prominent: letting go of the idea of "objectivity" and learning to deal with the whimsicalities of doing fieldwork. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Podlipski, M.-A., Lasfar, M., Sibeoni, J., Mirkovic, B., Raynal, A., and Gerardin, P.
- Abstract
L'hospitalisation des adolescentes anorexiques est fréquemment longue et vient elle-même s'articuler à une prise en charge qui a pu mobiliser plusieurs modalités de soins en amont. L'accompagnement de la famille dans le traitement de l'anorexie mentale à l'adolescence est un axe de travail fondamental dans le contexte de l'hospitalisation. Comme transition en fin de cette hospitalisation, la mise en place d'un repas familial thérapeutique associant familles et soignants vient s'inscrire dans un rite de passage que l'hospitalisation va incarner pour l'adolescente malade et sa famille. Cet abord rituel, une réflexion socio-anthropologique, la question du statut de l'adolescent malade, en hospitalisation et dans sa famille, la transition entre l'hôpital et la maison, la nature de la relation soignants–soignés, sont autant de thèmes permettant de comprendre l'intérêt singulier du repas familial thérapeutique. The hospitalization of anorexic teenagers is usually long and comes, most of the time, after different kinds of care. Family support in the treatment of mental anorexia among teenagers is a fundamental focus in the context of hospitalization. As a transition at the end of the hospitalization, the implementation of a therapeutic family meal with families and caregivers become part of the rite of passage that hospitalization embodies for the suffering teenagers and for their family. The ritual approach, socio-anthropological considerations, the question of the status of the teenager, the transition between the hospitalization and the house, the nature of the relationship between care-givers and care-receivers, are so many themes that allow to understand the peculiar interest of the therapeutic family meal.

Située sur l’île cycladique de Théra, la Xestè 3 est un bâtiment imposant de deux étages, daté du Bronze Récent, qui se distingue par la présence de très nombreuses peintures murales. Un décor qui, de par son thème iconographique particulier, fait aujourd’hui encore l’objet de discussions bien que les chercheurs s’accordent sur la représentation de rites de passage ou d’initiation. Prépondérante dans le bâtiment de la Xestè 3, ces peintures ont en grande partie participé à déterminer la fonction du bâtiment qui pourrait être dédié à la réalisation de ces rituels. Cette analyse interroge sur la relation entre l’espace figuré et l’espace réel, et notamment sur leur interdépendance qui semble avoir un dénominateur commun : le corps. Il est possible de s’interroger sur la place du corps ainsi exposé et sur sa participation dans la construction de cet espace.

This paper deals with the presentation of female characters in legends about fate (ATU 934) from Serbian sources. They appear as the Fates, a bride, or a sister, and express various aspects of the feminine imaginarium. The Fates are chthonic in character and appear in a negative aspect. If the legends are reviewed in the light of rites de passage, they prevent the separation of a male hero from the chthonic world towards the status of a bridegroom. In some variants, the figure of a bride appears, as another aspect of the feminine imaginarium that sacrifices a part of her life, thus bringing about the hero’s successful separation and new integration.

Depuis 2010, Arles est début décembre le théâtre d’une manifestation singulière célébrant une cinquantaine de fillettes arborant pour la première fois la vêture traditionnelle des jeunes filles de la Belle Époque. Ces enfants deviennent, à l’issue d’une présentation solennelle assortie d’un défilé et d’un spectacle, des Mireillettes, des petites « Mireilles ». Une référence à l’héroïne du poème en langue provençale de Frédéric Mistral (1830-1914). Désignée d’emblée par son initiatrice comme une invention de la tradition, cette fête est surinvestie de références et s’inspire des nombreuses cérémonies régionalistes initiées dès la deuxième moitié du xixe siècle. Cependant, en s’adressant à un jeune public, elle se veut le premier rite de passage d’un itinéraire costumier de la tradition scandant, selon les groupes folkloriques et les érudits locaux d’aujourd’hui, les âges de la vie. Organisée par l’association Festiv’Arles, cette cérémonie théâtralisée dépasse, cependant, la simple transmission de codes vestimentaires d’autrefois ; elle renvoie aux enjeux qui traversent la communauté des « gens du costume traditionnel ». Elle éclaire la démarche identitaire telle que la formulent ces adultes et offre potentiellement un renouvellement générationnel de cet entre-soi fondé sur une interprétation du passé dont le costume traditionnel est le témoin. Elle se présente également comme un lieu de transmission où les acteurs de la tradition partagent un corpus inédit de savoirs relatifs à la Provence et à son histoire. Enfin, cette fête des Mireillettes offre une tribune privilégiée pour affirmer le présent des valeurs mémorielles du territoire arlésien. Une manière de revendiquer une juste place dans la cité pour ce patrimoine de la tradition, un patrimoine immatériel qui conjugue savoir-faire et représentations mentales, et reconstruit un passé toujours en devenir. Every December since 2010, the city of Arles has been the setting of a singular event celebrating some fifty little girls dressed for the first time in the traditional costume of young women of France’s Belle Epoque. At the end of a formal ceremony accompanied by a parade and a performance, these children become ‘Mireillettes’, or ‘little Mireilles’, a reference to the heroine of a poem written in the Provençal language by Frédéric Mistral (1830-1914). As its founder recognises, this festival is an invention of tradition; abounding in local references, it draws on many regionalist ceremonies introduced in the second half of the 19th century. By addressing itself to a young audience, however, it aspires to be the first rite of passage along the itinerary of clothing traditions that, for today’s folklore groups and local experts, mark the steps of life. But this carefully orchestrated ceremony, organised by the association Festiv’Arles, goes beyond the simple transmission of the dress codes of another era. It touches on questions that are shared by those who consider themselves the ‘People of the Traditional Costume’ and thus sheds light on the adults’ own approach to identity. It potentially opens the way for a generational renewal of their self-segregation that is based on an interpretation of the past through the traditional costume. It is also a locus of transmission, where the protagonists of the tradition share the unfamiliar corpus of knowledge about Provence and its history. And ultimately, the festival provides a singular tribune for affirming the memorial values of the territory known as the Pays d’Arles. It is a way of claiming a just place in the society for this traditional heritage, an intangible culture that combines know-how and mental representations to reconstruct an ever-evolving past.

RITES of passage , *TAX assessment , *LIMINALITY , *SOCIAL sciences - Abstract
Contrary to most readers who have emphasized the notions of passage or liminality, I demonstrate in this study that Van Gennep’s Rites de passage is articulated around the four notions of sequences, margins, passages, and schema. Subsequently, the main claim of this article is to propose the idea of social kinesis—or social rhythm—as the crux of Van Gennep’s theory. Such a fresh reappraisal of Van Gennep is also an opportunity to show how Pierre Bourdieu sought for social laws and regularities in a rather deterministic fashion, and completely overlooked Van Gennep’s idea of motion. More importantly, this article is an invitation to reconsider Van Gennep’s epistemological approach as a bridge between the social and the life sciences. Indeed, Van Gennep’s so-called méthode des séquences emerges from a dialogue between the social sciences and biology on the one hand, and with cosmology on the other. Indeed, I illuminate how Van Gennep investigated the enigmas of social life and dynamics within the framework of his understanding of metabolism and regenerative processes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

L’importance que prennent les noces à une époque de fort désinvestissement pour l’institution du mariage invite à s’interroger sur ses significations actuelles et la nouvelle place qu’elles occupent dans l’histoire du couple. Une relecture des travaux d’Arnold Van Gennep et de Pierre Bourdieu sur la notion de « rite » ainsi qu’une enquête de terrain réalisée en France permettent de montrer que l’institution du mariage n’est plus un « passage » pour l’individu, mais que la cérémonie du mariage constitue une scène de transition importante pour le couple. Les noces semblent tirer leur puissance du fait qu’elles ne sont plus imposées ni nécessaires. Loin d’affaiblir la cérémonie du mariage, le déclin de l’institution matrimoniale a sans doute été enrayé paradoxalement par le maintien des noces : dans ce cas, la forme supplante le fond et lui vient en secours. L’investissement total des jeunes mariés dans l’organisation de leur mariage apparaît dès lors à la mesure de l’engagement matrimonial qu’ils souhaitent ou espèrent ainsi révéler. La cérémonie de mariage est un espace de performation du couple que les époux aspirent à devenir., The importance given to weddings at a time when the institution of marriage itself is falling into disrepute leads one to ponder the current significance and new role of this event in the life of the couple. A re-reading of the works of Arnold Van Gennep and of Pierre Bourdieu with regard to the notion of “rites”, taken together with a field study carried out in France, indicate that marriage as such is no longer a “passage” in the life of the individual, but that the wedding itself ranks as a transition activity that is important to the couple, its power seeming to derive from the very fact that it is no longer either mandatory or necessary. Far from weakening the wedding ceremony, the decline in the institution of marriage seems, paradoxically, to have been countered by the maintenance of the wedding itself; this is an instance where form has replaced substance and now offers it a helping hand. The total commitment of young married couples to the organization of their marriage may then be seen as an indicator of the strength of the matrimonial commitment they wish or hope to thus demonstrate. The ceremonial of marriage is a space where the couple act out what the spouses hope to become.

People with disabilities in post-Soviet Russia number about 12 million. However, academic research dedicated to many problems of this large segment of Russian society, among them issues of stigmatization and self-stigmatization, is still scant. The autobiographical material written by people with disabilities in the 1990s-2000s constitutes an invaluable source for comprehending life experiences of disabled individuals in post-Soviet Russia. These texts reflect main life strategies of persons with congenital and acquired disabilities. The medical diagnosis of disability is a life-changing event for people with impairments as it radically changes their status in society and their way of life. This paper treats the diagnosis as the first step in the ordeal that could legitimately be described as a “rite of passage” to another world, the world of living with disability, their “netherworld.” By analyzing the autobiographies of disabled individuals this paper exposes how labels and notions applied to disability in contemporary Russian society are rooted in a wider Russian culture, and in Soviet attitudes towards disability and people with impairments. Dans la Russie post-soviétique, on dénombre environ 12 millions de personnes qui vivent en situation de handicap. Cependant, les recherches scientifiques consacrées à ce large segment de la société russe, principalement à propos de la stigmatisation et de l’auto-stigmatisation, sont rares. Les textes autobiographiques écrits par des personnes qui présentent un handicap, entre 1990 et 2010, permettent de mieux comprendre les expériences de ces personnes dans la Russie post-soviétique. Ces textes témoignent notamment des principales stratégies que les personnes qui présentent des incapacités motrices congénitales ou acquises ont adopté afin de s’adapter aux défis de la vie quotidienne. Le diagnostic médical a profondément transformé le statut social et le mode de vie de ces personnes. Cet article examine le diagnostic selon la perspective des théories du “rite de passage” vers un autre monde, le monde des personnes handicapées, leur “bas-monde.” En s’appuyant sur les autobiographies de personnes handicapées, cet article révèle comment les étiquettes et les notions appliquées à l’infirmité au sein de la société russe contemporaine sont enracinées dans la culture russe dans son ensemble et dans les attitudes soviétiques envers le handicap et les personnes handicapées.

Cette contribution propose à la fois une présentation et un approfondissement terminologique des concepts privilégiés par l’ethnocritique et une analyse, basée sur cette approche, du conte « L’Hôte à Valiquet » (1863) de Joseph-Charles Taché. L’analyse révèlera comment un produit sémiotique profane (le conte populaire) reprend un produit sémiotique catholique (le baptême) pour en faire une œuvre de fiction qui tend à penser la transcendance d’un point de vue populaire.

30. 'It's Not in the Course Guide!': Reflections from a Dutch Field School on How Students Learn to Do Fieldwork

Rasch, Elisabet, Simon Thomas, M.A., Cremers, G., Verschuuren, Bas, Rasch, Elisabet, Simon Thomas, M.A., Cremers, G., and Verschuuren, Bas
- Abstract
In this reflection we unpack students’ first fieldwork experiences and how this parallels a rite de passage . We do so in two domains: (1) students' first fieldwork with a focus on entering the field, staying in the field, and researcher identity; and (2) the impact of fieldwork experiences on students’ professional skills. Two struggles are prominent: letting go of the idea of “objectivity” and learning to deal with the whimsicalities of doing fieldwork.

Pietrzyk, Anna
- Abstract
In this paper the author analyzes the tradition of post-mortem photography in Poland. The analysis is based on her own research conducted in the city of Lodz, as well as on articles written by other authors in Poland. Post-mortem photography is the practice of photographing the recently deceased. Photographing corpses of family members was an important, if not common, occurrence in the lower classes of polish society (especially in rural populations) in the 19th and the early 20th century. And it still exists today. The memorial images - now often deemed macabre or morbid - are actually artifacts which document an unspoken part of our social history and can be seen as icons of love and loss as well as the history of funeral customs traditions.

This research concerns collective social capital and, more specifically, the operating process of engagement networks. We equate the action of these networks with passing rituals. These rituals allow a business executive to move from one values’ framework to another, under the effect of ritualized actions (recurring, symbolic, temporalized and spatialized actions). This assimilation makes it possible to mobilize a proven corpus in anthropology and management. The case study of the “Entreprendre Network” underlines the importance of the “separation phase” at the beginning of the operating process and shows the emergence of a community belonging of the subjects in the “preliminary phase”. At odds with certain management studies, our study also shows that the liminary subject is not here in an ambiguous situation in-between two moral standards and that its reflexivity remains individual, without impact on the rules and practices of the network. From a methodological point of view, it suggests replacing the notion of proximity with that of spatiality. Finally, it establishes managerial recommendations on the collective conduct of individual transformations, La recherche conduite concerne le capital social collectif et, plus spécifiquement, le processus de fonctionnement des réseaux d'engagement. Nous assimilons l'action de ces réseaux à des rituels de passage. Ceux-ci permettent à un dirigeant d'entreprise de passer d'un référentiel de valeur à un autre, sous l'effet d'actions ritualisées (actions récurrentes, symboliques, temporalisées et spatialisées). Cette assimilation permet de mobiliser un corpus éprouvé en anthropologie et en management. L'étude du cas du Réseau Entreprendre souligne l'importance de la phase de séparation en début de processus et montre l'émergence d'une appartenance communautaire des sujets en phase liminaire. En décalage avec certains travaux en management, l'étude montre également que le sujet liminaire n'est pas ici dans une situation ambigüe entre deux référentiels moraux et que sa réflexivité demeure individuelle, sans impact sur les règles et pratiques du réseau. D'un point de vue méthodologique, elle propose de substituer la notion de proximité à celle de spatialité. Enfin, elle établit des préconisations managériales sur la conduite collective de transformations individuelles.

Dans le quatrième roman de Marcel Aymé, la « mauvaise mort » occupe une place centrale. Une lecture ethnocritique des rituels funéraires souligne les dérèglements durant chaque phase des rites. En outre, ces pratiques obéissent à la fois à une coutume locale (orale et communautaire) et à des manifestations urbaines (écrites et extérieures). Le texte littéraire éclaire l’efficacité symbolique pour des enjeux multiples et opposés et permet de dépasser l’approche sociohistorique de l’entre-deux-guerres.

International audience; The aim of this paper is to put into perspective the sources concerning homoerotic relationships in Etruscan culture, by attempting to restore the Etruscans' own gaze of this type of interaction. It is important to underline the relative small amount of the data at hand, which in itself is a question: it is mainly composed of images, given the specificity of the Etruscan case, for which we do not have direct literary sources and of which epigraphic sources are difficult to interpret. However, if homoerotic relationships are well known in Hellenic culture, especially in a male context, what can we say about them in Etruscan culture? Moreover, in this highly institutionalized field because it is part of paideia, the Etruscans may not have merely adopted Greek models but have rather created discourses and images in accordance with their cosmology.; Le propos de cette contribution est de mettre en perspective les sources concernant les relations homoérotiques dans la culture étrusque, en tentant de restituer le regard porté par les Étrusques eux-mêmes sur ce type d’interaction. Il convient de souligner la relative modestie des données, ce qui, en soi, fait question : elles sont principalement constituées d’images, compte tenu de la spécificité du cas étrusque, pour lequel nous ne disposons pas de sources littéraires directes, et dont les sources épigraphiques sont difficiles à interpréter. Or, si les relations homoérotiques sont bien connues dans la culture hellénique, notamment dans un contexte masculin, que pouvons-nous en dire dans la culture étrusque ? Bien plus, dans ce domaine très institutionnalisé car relevant de la paideia, il ne semble pas que les Étrusques aient adopté purement et simplement des modèles grecs. Mais qu’ils ont bien plutôt forgé discours et images en accord avec leur cosmologie. Ce document a été généré automatiquement le 17 octobre 2020.

Ayahuasca is the most common term which refers to a plant based hallucinogenic beverage made with the jungle lianas Banisteriopsis Caapi (Schultes 1972:35; De Rios 1984:8). Through a review of this literature, my project evaluates how the changing geographic boundaries, cultural context and worldview of ayahuasca users alter the intention and meaning of ayahuasca usage. This paper provides a contextual overview of hallucinogenic plants in Central and South America, key themes in shamanism and Amazonian shamanism. Local Amazonian ayahuasca use in Peru, Ecuador and Colombia, Brazilian ayahuasca religions, neo-shamanism and ayahuasca drug tourism literature is presented and analyzed drawing upon Van Gennep’s (1960) “Rites de Passage”, Victor Turner’s (1970) “Liminality”, Shaw and Stewart’s (2003) problematization of syncretism and Grimes’ (1992) characteristics of the reinvention of ritual. Literature regarding therapeutic/medicinal ayahuasca use and ayahuasca legality is also presented. I argue recent and contemporary ayahuasca use may utilize traditional elements of Amazonian shamanism, though depart from Indigenous cosmology as ideologies governing it’s use become syncretic, institutionalized and influenced by Western individualism.

International audience; Le sanctuaire d’Artémis à Thasos a livré l’un des ensembles coroplathiques les plus riches du monde grec, autant par le volume de fragments recueillis en fouilles (25 000 tessons, soit environ 500 kg) que par la variété typologique et iconographique du répertoire, dans lequel prédominent très largement, et comme attendu, les représentations féminines. Celles-ci réunissent en e et près de 90% de la totalité du matériel parvenu, dont 60% de protomés et 30% de statue es. Dans ce dernier ensemble, les figurines nues occupent une place modeste, mais non négligeable, avec quelques dizaines d’exemplaires répartis en différents types, tantôt et pour la majorité entièrement nus, tantôt semi-drapés. Dans le cadre du colloque, ce sont les figurines entièrement nues qui ont retenu tout particulièrement notre attention. Celles-ci se répartissent de manière inégale en trois types iconographiques qui se déclinent eux-mêmes en plusieurs types techniques: les figurines assises sans siège, avec ou sans avant-bras ou avec avant-bras articulés, qui sont les plus nombreuses et les plus variées; les figurines aux bras et jambes articulés; et les figurines tronquées, acéphales et aux membres coupés, attestées dans le matériel thasien en deux exemplaires probablement tirés d’un même moule. elle que soit leur physionomie, ces représentations sont encore, par habitude ou par convention, très souvent appelées « poupées », un terme qui peut tout à fait se comprendre pour les statue es à membres mobiles, mais qui s’explique plus difficilement lorsqu’il est employé pour désigner des types non articulés ou aux membres non figurés. Les figurines assises sans siège sont aussi parfois considérées comme des représentations de «Hierodoules» ou d’Aphrodite, certainement du fait de leur nudité qui paraît mieux convenir à des prostituées sacrées ou à la déesse de l’amour. Quant aux corps tronqués, on les rapproche parfois des ex-voto anatomiques. Or des travaux récents autour de l’interprétation des figurines, notamment les recherches menées ces dernières années par l’équipe lilloise sur les ensembles coroplathiques de Thasos et de Dyrrhachion en Albanie, suggèrent d’autres orientations de lecture possibles pour ces images particulières de nus féminins. Ce e publication donne ainsi l’occasion, à travers la présentation de ce dossier thasien encore inédit, de revenir sur les problèmes d’interprétation de ces types de figurines nues, très différents les uns des autres, dont on essaiera de comprendre les raisons de leur présence, ensemble, dans ce contexte précis de l’Artémision de Thasos.

The City and the Wilderness : the Rites of Lupercalia. In this analytic survey of Lupercalia all the ritual acts are first examined separately and then inserted in and interpreted through the unifying frame of the ritual as a whole. This approach allows the conclusion that the Lupercalia, taking place at the end of the old Roman year, staged and realized, through a series of rites of passage and the presence of the Luperci, the irruption of the wilderness and its forces in the civilized world, that of the city. This temporary entry of the wilderness into civilization ensured the disintegration of religious pollution of the preceding year and thus purified the community for the next one., Est proposée ici une étude analytique des Lupercales, où chacun de leurs rites est d’abord étudié séparément pour être ensuite inséré et interprété dans le cadre unificateur du rituel tout entier. Cette approche démontre que les Lupercales mettaient en scène et réalisaient à travers une série de rites de passage et la figure des Luperques l’ irruption, à la fin de l’ ancienne année romaine, du monde sauvage et de ses forces dans le monde civilisé, la cité. Cette entrée éphémère du sauvage dans le civilisé assurait la désintégration des maux de l’année écoulée et ainsi purifiait la communauté pour la nouvelle année., Vé Karlis.

This article is a preliminary attempt to read the condition of survivors – those who were imprisoned in the displaced persons camps in occupied Germany just after the war. In this context author considers Tadeusz Nowakowski’s novel Obóz Wszystkich Świętych (Camp of All Saints), full of satire, grotesque and thoroughly soaked with sarcasm. The addition to Nowakowski’s vision is Tadeusz Borowski’s short story Bitwa pod Grunwaldem (Battle of Grunwald), as well as his poems from this time, e.g. Demokratyczne dary (Democratic Gifts), and also Jerzy Zagórski’s reports W południowych Niemczech (In Southern Germany), where the camps for DPs are compared to Henry Moore’s anthropomorphic figures sleeping in the tunnel. Separate reflections are devoted to the fate of Ida Fink, Shoah survivor, who was imprisoned in the Ettlingen camp. The writer mentions this time in the novel Podróż (Travel) and the interviews. Textual analyzes lead the author of the article to the conclusion that the narratives are proof of the inability to experience peace of mind in the time of freedom and generally the inability to return to pre-war times.

The importance given to weddings at a time when the institution of marriage itself is falling into disrepute leads one to ponder the current significance and new role of this event in the life of the couple. A re-reading of the works of Arnold Van Gennep and of Pierre Bourdieu with regard to the notion of “rites”, taken together with a field study carried out in France, indicate that marriage as such is no longer a “passage” in the life of the individual, but that the wedding itself ranks as a transition activity that is important to the couple, its power seeming to derive from the very fact that it is no longer either mandatory or necessary. Far from weakening the wedding ceremony, the decline in the institution of marriage seems, paradoxically, to have been countered by the maintenance of the wedding itself ; this is an instance where form has replaced substance and now offers it a helping hand. The total commitment of young married couples to the organization of their marriage may then be seen as an indicator of the strength of the matrimonial commitment they wish or hope to thus demonstrate. The ceremonial of marriage is a space where the couple act out what the spouses hope to become.

Hazing rituals and ceremonies have been described in traditional, historical world cultures, junior and high school, the military, private schools, paramilitary organizations, fraternities and sororities, as well as sport (Allan and Madden 2008; Bryshun and Young 1999; Campo, Poulos, and Sipple 2005; Fields, Collins, and Comstock 2010; Johnson 2000, 2009; Linhares de Albuquerque and Paes-Machado 2004; Nuwer 1999; Winslow 1999; Zacharda 2009). Student athletes often endure hazing practices with 80% of NCAA athletes reporting some form of initiation (Hoover 1999) in exchange for membership affiliation. This qualitative study compared the similarities and deviations between contemporary initiations and historical traditions defining both the importance of cultures to establish "Rites of Passage" membership gateways and metamorphoses from nonmember to group. Results indicated that despite often abusive hazing ceremonies in sport, marked by hierarchies, power imbalances, and, at times, criminal behaviour, there still exists a demand for an entry ritual by the rookie contingency to mark their membership and identity within the team structure. Hazing traditions continue in the belief in what Turner (1986) describes as Communitas, despite indications from participants that hazing fractured relationships on the team — a marked contradiction of Communitas.

WOMEN & war , *ART & war , *BOSNIAN art - Abstract
This paper deals with three performance pieces by the Bosnian artist Maja Bajevic, entitled Women at Work (1999- 2001). The artist performed these works in public spaces, in collaboration with Muslim women who were war refugees from Srebrenica. The first piece Women at Work--Under Construction took place in Sarajevo (1999), the second subtitled The Observers was performed in a French castle (2000), and the last in the series, Women at Work--Washing Up was situated in women's public bath in Istanbul (2001). All three performances were delicately interlaced with Bajevic's inimitable politics of domesticity. In her solo pieces and those realized in cooperation with other women, her politics manifest through the public performance of diverse manual activities, such as embroidering, sewing or laundering. These habitual female proceedings, repetitive and monotonous, are carried out in public spaces so as to lay bare women's traditional activities for coping with absences. The theme of absence is at the core of Maja Bajevic's art. Most of her works relate to subjective "voids," distances, digressions, separations and the plausibility of loss; they refer to absent "spaces," the spaces that may have existed or have been imagined as homes or homelands.

Abstract: From a clinical experiment with parents and their infant in a Parent-Baby Therapeutic Centre, the author explores three types of psychic temporality which weave the screen of the immediate postpartum: the synchronic time of the baby, the diachronic time of the mother and the afterwards necessary made by the excessive experiment of the birth, and finally the time of the socius, which stresses and frames the psychic work of becoming parent or baby by ritual proposals. With the current failure of the rituality around the birth, the devices of care in perinatality can then act as rites of passage. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

L'auteur a souhaité limiter l'accès de ce document aux membres de l'Enseignement supérieur français; Written from a historical, philological and anthropological perspective, this PhD thesis consists in a comparative study of childhood and coming of age deities in Ancient Greece. While the first part is focused on the Attica, the Peloponnesus and the Aegean Islands, the second part will explore the Childhood Pantheon and the role of children within the religious realm.; La première partie de cette thèse est consacrée à une étude régionale des dieux et de rites de l'enfance et se concentre donc sur l'Attique, le Péloponnèse et les Îles égéennes. Un panthéon de l'enfance se dessine alors, marqué par d'importants invariants mais aussi de forts localismes. La deuxième partie interroge ce panthéon de l'enfance et les attributions des divinités qui le composent, ainsi que la place des enfants dans la religion grecque. Il apparaît en effet que, loin d'être marginalisés, ces fidèles particuliers revêtaient un rôle important dans les pratiques religieuses du monde grec.

Актуальность темы исследования мифа в ритуальнообрядовой практике черкесов (адыгов) связана с концептуально новым их восприятием в современной культуре. Мифологизация и персонификация образов божеств и покровителей пантеона охватывает семантикотрансляционные уровни во взаимодействии с репрезентативностью и структурной организацией ритуальных действ. В статье рассмотрены вопросы реконструкции и реинтерпретации древней мифологической системы черкесов (адыгов) с последующим выявлением схожих ритуалов, рассмотрены вопросы заимствования сюжета, а также раскрыты символы и образы во взаимодействии и взаимовлиянии с архетипической мифологической структурой и озвучивания музыкального пространства ритуала при помощи инструментального наигрыша или песни в честь божества. Рассматривается адыгская свирель камыль, которая озвучивала музыкальное пространство обряда. Она была наделена сакральной силой имеющей божественное происхождение и прокладывавшая границу между человеческим первопредком и божествами. Реинтерпретация архетипической мифологической структуры, ее сюжетов, символов и образов, приводят в настоящее время к новому миропониманию мифологической системы, тем самым давая им новую жизнь, как феномена современной культуры с позиции репрезентации архаических мифологических образов и символов. Общей чертой проанализированных архаических пластов культуры является единая система трансляции и понимания священного ритуала и звукового оформления пространства, для достижения блага, необходимого для существования и развития человека в мировом порядке. Целью исследования является идентификация элементов архаического мифа в обрядоворитуальной практике, на примере репрезентативных обрядов, а также архаических образцов музыкальной традиции черкесов (адыгов) для озвучивания пространства обряда/ритуала., Topicality of the study of myth in ritual practices of the Circassians (Adyghe) is conceptually new in their perception in modern culture. Mythology and the personification of images of deities and patrons of the Pantheon covers the semantic and translational levels, in cooperation with the representation and structural organization of ritual activities. In the article the questions of reconstruction and reinterpretation of the ancient mythological system of the Circassians (Adyghe), followed by the identification of similar rituals, the issues of borrowing of the plot, and revealed the symbols and images in interaction and mutual influence of archetypal mythological structure, and the articulation of musical space ritual with instrumental tune or song in praise of the deity. Discusses the Circassian pipe camel that sounded musical space of the rite. She was endowed with a sacred force of divine origin and paving the border between human and ancestor deities. A reinterpretation of the archetypal mythological structure, its plots, characters and images, leading currently to a new understanding of the world of mythological systems, thus giving them new life, as a phenomenon of contemporary culture from the perspective of the representation of the archaic mythological images and symbols. A common feature of the analyzed archaic layers of culture is a unified system of translation and understanding of the sacred ritual and sound design of the space, to achieve the values necessary for the existence and development of man in the world order. The aim of the study is to identify elements of archaic myth in the rituala ritual practice, on the example of the representative rites and archaic samples of the musical tradition of the Circassians (Adyghe) for scoring space ritual., №9 (2019)
