Abstract
- In this paper we propose to approach the camarguaise bullfighting through animal work. We will focus on the Biòu d'Or bulls career, which is the main objective of the breed, the Course, a sport based on the competition of speed and agility between humans and bulls in Camargue, in the south of France. We identified a profession of up to 12 years, where knowledge and intelligence grow in the bull's body thanks to the repeated exposure to the razateur. We have found two aesthetics of sport that have their correlation in the breeding labor, both of which are settled between strength and an active submission, which creates conditions of possibility to diminish or increase humanity and animality. The findings are based on data collected through participant observation of ten Courses in Camargue and the analysis of private audiovisual archives, and 15 semi-directed interviews with razeteurs and ranchers during 2021.
